Found an odd bone that I am unsure of, I could use some help. Seems to be partially fossilized, and is from a site where I have found numerous fossil Bison bones and teeth. It has what looks like one flexor/joint end, but the other end isn't. Advice appreciated.

Nice Manganese oxide dendrites!

I have to say, those are some fine looking trilobites!

Hahahaha, they are definitely not chocolate. They are trilobites.

very nice, I can understand that you might think it could be a millipede or something like this But what you found is a special type of mineralisation. It is called "dentrites", minerals grow between two layers, more 2-dimensional and not like normal 3-dimensional might be this helps a little bit to understand Dendrite (crystal) - Wikipedia

I don't necessarily think printing a picture of a badge that says MOTM would carry the same kind of weight, personally, as something more tangible such as an e-award. People are motivated differently. What works for one might not work for 99 out of 100 other people.- 106 replies

Found this in a Pennsylvanian-era formation. This is my first fossil hunt ever, so I don't even know if a lot of what I found are fossils or not. But this one was the most interesting. Found in some shale in a road cut near Jellico, TN. To me it looks like some type of millipede, or maybe some type of root system. Not too sure!

The brown ones seriously look like chocolates.

I mean, when you become an MOTM, you carry that proudly within you. You don't need to show it. I'm proud of my badge, it's an honor to have received it for my humble contributions But nevertheless it is possible to copy the badge and print it- 106 replies

We've been trying to do this, but it is a struggle to do on a monthly basis. The other problem with this, is that there are many who are no longer active on the forum at this point. Hard to award someone who is no longer active to appreciate it. Still, thank you for the input. We may be able to do this on a less frequent schedule. -
the spiny one is fantastic!!!

Not likely. -

Possible fish scale fragments from Big Brook, NJ
Fossildude19 replied to TRexEliot's topic in Fossil ID
@frankh8147 @Carl I agree with fish scale of some sort for the first. Not sure about gar, but some sort of scale. No clue on the second one. Wild guess - Has the same sort of squamation that you can see on some fish skulls. So maybe a skull bit??? -
7 Year Old Boy, determined to be a paleontologist, brought home something to be identified.
fossilus replied to ZoeyyBird's topic in Fossil ID
These types of fossils, when found in SE Texas are generally Cretaceous in age (time of the dinosaurs) and have been brought by rivers that go through central texas- where the rocks are mostly marine and Cretaceous. He may want to visit Glen Rose and see the dinosaur foot prints where the dinos walked through shallow seas. -
Will do. Not home now but I will

It might be the shell fragment from a Trionyx soft shell turtle. -

Fossil clam found at Big Brook - first of these I've ever seen, is it anything interesting?
TRexEliot replied to TRexEliot's topic in Fossil ID
@frankh8147 forgot to update this, but I gave the specimen to Ralph Johnson and, after quite a bit of research and going through the collection to compare, he emailed me to say "the small clam is very similar to Vetericardia crenalirata (Conrad)."
