You got some neat stuff there dude!

I think this is one of the fossils Kyle held up in one of his latest videos and said they aren't found very often. Some turtle shell part that is uncommon to find.

@Darko what an awesome package, you got very spoiled!!! :drool:

 

I especially love those shells, they are gorgeous. But all the rest of your stuff, like those incredible shark teeth, are equally breathtaking. 

@AshHendrick you put up a very generous package, and definitely found some great stuff, well done. I can try to help you ID some of the shells if you would like me to do so :)

@Darko your grab bag is probably the best one I've seen to date. @caldigger my apologies for posting late. My Secret Santa was none other than the respectable @JohnBrewer and his oddities and myriad of fossils was enjoyable. I spent a good amount of time going over each one along with the booklet on Souther England fossils which I very much enjoyed. Here's the lot:

 

An assortment of fossils mainly from England along with a neat booklet on Southern England fossil sites.

My first blastoid. Really excited to get this one.

An assormtnet of fossils from the UK, Czech Republic, and Morocco.

Some more UK fossils and a nice French ammonite. I can also say that's my first belemnite (bottom right).

Gorgeous Harpoceras ammonite. Thank you so much @JohnBrewer
