Strepsodus Posted June 7, 2016 Share Posted June 7, 2016 (edited) Hi. Here are some fossils which I would like to trade. Due to postage costs I can only trade with people in the UK. I would like to trade them for anything from the Carboniferous except Corals, Sponges and Bryozoans. I would prefer to trade them for fish, plant or shell fossils, but I would be happy to trade them for other fossil types. Thanks, Daniel. 1. British fossil set. All of the fossils in the picture are for the same trade (comes in box): -Turritella Gastropod (Isle of Wight) -Two corals (Derbyshire) - Belemnopsis bessina belemnite (Peterborough) -Belemnite Phragmacone (Peterborough) -Acanthothyris Brachiopod (Oxfordshire) -Kosmoceras ammonite (Peterborough) -Isocrinus fisheri Crinoid (Peterborough) -Pentacrinites fossilis (Seatown,Dorset) -Cardioceras ammonite (Peterborough) -Crinoids (Derbyshire) 2. Whale tooth, USA (location and age unknown, but I think it's probably Miocene age.) I think it's probably a sperm whale tooth. 3/4. Megalodon tooth, which I think may be Pathologic (Two dots on the back (found in the USA but I'm not sure of the exact location or age.)

Strepsodus Posted June 8, 2016 Author Share Posted June 8, 2016 (edited) Hi. I've been looking on the internet at postage costs and they're cheaper than I thought so I can trade with people in the US, UK and mainland Europe. The whale tooth is currently reserved. I could post the british fossil set to non-Uk locations but I could only post it without the box as its too large. I can post it with or without the box to UK locations Daniel Edited June 8, 2016 by Strepsodus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seaforth Posted June 10, 2016 Share Posted June 10, 2016 I might be interested in the Meg Tooth. Have lots of Carboniferous trilo frags if that would nbe of interest Cheers Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strepsodus Posted June 10, 2016 Author Share Posted June 10, 2016 (edited) Hi. Thanks for the replies. I would be very interested in Carboniferous trilobites; I don't have any yet. Please PM me if you want to trade. The Whale tooth has now been traded. Here is a better picture of the British fossil set. Thanks, Daniel Edited June 10, 2016 by Strepsodus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kosmoceras Posted June 10, 2016 Share Posted June 10, 2016 Here is a better picture of the British fossil set. Thanks, Daniel Sorry but I fail to see how thats a better picture than the first you posted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strepsodus Posted June 10, 2016 Author Share Posted June 10, 2016 (edited) I wasn't really meaning it is any better than the first picture but I was meaning it shows some of the fossils better which couldn't be seen very well in the first photo, so in one of the two photos each fossil can be seen well. For example the furrow of one of the belemnites can be seen in the second picture, whereas in the first one it can't. Also in my opinion the Carboniferous Crinoids can be seen clearer in the second picture. Edited June 10, 2016 by Strepsodus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fossildude19 Posted June 10, 2016 Share Posted June 10, 2016 I think they meant (maybe?) take a picture from directly above the box. Also, it might help to take your pictures outside in natural daylight. I did what I could to help these pictures out.
