LiamL Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 This Ichthyosaur fossil has just arrived in the mail, i won it at auction. It comes from Whitby in the UK. There are no repairs. On the last photo attached on top of the Vert, is this a rib bone possibly? Yorkshire Coast Fossil Hunter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Macrophyseter Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 Could be. The shapes of vertebra are clear, and I'm guessing that the whole thing was covered in mud or something? 1 If you're a fossil nut from Palos Verdes, San Pedro, Redondo Beach, or Torrance, feel free to shoot me a PM!

-Andy- Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 Always wanted to get an articulated ichthyosaur vert like that. Nice one! Looking forward to meeting my fellow Singaporean collectors! Do PM me if you are a Singaporean, or an overseas fossil-collector coming here for a holiday! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
