Fossildude19 Posted September 25, 2016 Share Posted September 25, 2016 Welcome to the Forum. The fish is a Vinctifer comptoni from the Cretaceous Santana Formation, Ceara Brazil. New members are not allowed to sell fossils here on the Forum. You have to be a well established, participating member before you are granted access to the Member Sales Forum. This rule was instituted to keep commercial ventures from flooding the Forum with sales offers. Thanks for your understanding. 2 Tim - VETERAN SHALE SPLITTER VFOTM --- APRIL - 2015 __________________________________________________ "In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks."

Our Forum Rules and Community Standards specifically state: "Please understand that The Fossil Forum cannot appraise the commercial value of a fossil; this is beyond what can be done through pictures on the internet, so please don't ask." Please check out various auction sites to garner a relative value. Good luck. Thanks for your understanding.
