LiamL Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 I’ve been super excited to finally find my own marine reptile fossil and today i’ve done just that and i’m chuffed! Found this near Whitby in Yorkshire. Low tide was at about 6pm so I was waiting for the water to go out so I could get round. Lucky I was the first person. The vert is very waterworn and damaged, but Im not bothered. I’ve had my eye out for awhile and am very happy to find one, hopefully the first of many.. 1 Yorkshire Coast Fossil Hunter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiamL Posted August 7, 2018 Author Share Posted August 7, 2018 A picture of the back. I also found a nice dac that i’ll prep up. I was tempted to whack it again to get the rest of the ammonite showing but theres a crack on the bottom, so it might ruin it. 5 Yorkshire Coast Fossil Hunter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ludwigia Posted August 8, 2018 Share Posted August 8, 2018 Congrats on your first vert! I'd drop lots of liquid super glue into those cracks on the Dacty if I were you before you prep it any further. 2 Greetings from the Lake of Constance.
