JNIT98 Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 (edited) Found these in Big Brook over the past few years. Unfortunately, I am not knowledgeable enough to identify these with any certainty.This one obviously looks like a shark tooth, but I question it because it is not made up of the same shiny material as the other "regular" looking shark tooth fossils we found. No clue about this glob.Porous The top tooth has a sandy texture and less boney look but same shape. The left one does not seem fossilized to me. Not sure if prehistoric squid or something like a claw or nail? Centers seem to be a little hollowed out. Edited April 27, 2017 by JNIT98 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ynot Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 Looks geologic to Me. Darwin said: " Man sprang from monkeys." Will Rogers said: " Some of them didn't spring far enough."

fossilized6s Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 Yup, looks like a conglomerate of sorts. ~Charlie~ "There are those that look at things the way they are, and ask why.....i dream of things that never were, and ask why not?" ~RFK ->Get your Mosasaur print ->How to spot a fake Trilobite ->How to identify a CONCRETION from a DINOSAUR EGG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeschWhat Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 I think most of these are ironstone concretions. I agree with the others on the last one. Hopefully someone will be able to help you with the tooth (labeled "the left"). The photo is too blurry to tell if the one beside it is a tooth as well. This on may be a coprolite, but could also be a concretion. 2 Lori www.areallycrappystory.com/fossils www.facebook.com/fossilpoo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A couple of them look like they might be bivalve steinkerns based on what appears to be umbo and hinge structure (definitely iron rich matrix ). 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fossilized6s Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 Your tooth looks like a modern Raccoon lower canine. As for the other items i agree with thee others, iron stone with one or two steinkerns. 2 ~Charlie~ "There are those that look at things the way they are, and ask why.....i dream of things that never were, and ask why not?" ~RFK ->Get your Mosasaur print ->How to spot a fake Trilobite ->How to identify a CONCRETION from a DINOSAUR EGG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
