I have a few that I would like to know the name and rarity of. Not specifically. Are we talking modern shells, or fossil shells? If modern, there are other websites you could post those on. We tend to stick to Fossil stuff here.

MrBones Posted January 14, 2019 Author Share Posted January 14, 2019 Ok, I was talking about modern shells. I convinced my parents to let me join this forum as collecting fossils and rocks is what i do most. I was just wandering if modern shells are also an option.

While we understand that sometimes modern shells are part of what gets brought home, we want to keep the focus here on Fossils. Thanks for your understanding, and cooperation. 1 Tim - VETERAN SHALE SPLITTER VFOTM --- APRIL - 2015 __________________________________________________ "In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks."

If they are modern, they should really be ID'd via PM or on another website.
