Hi everybody, I found this last Sunday on the beach in central Vietnam. It looks like fossilised bones with some skin on it. Does anybody know what this could be? Thank you in advance for your help.

Hello everyone, I found an odd rock at my beach in Florida. It looks like charcoal. It’s heavy like cement. Sand has formed rock around the bottom. (Coquina?) It also has rust colors around the sandy parts. It probably has been in the ocean a long time. From looking online, it might be Lignite. Just curious how old it might be and what it is. Thanks everyone!

Would love help identifying this large heavy, what I believe to be a vertebrae fossil? I found it on the North Norfolk coast on a beach near Burnham Overy Staithe at the bottom of sand dunes running along the beach after a big tidal surge which caused the collapse of the face of the dunes. It weighs 6.2kg ( wet weight ) and I have placed a 50p piece on it for scale. Any help greatly appreciated.

Hi! I found a shark tooth on the beach, near the water, on a pile of rocks this past weekend. It was found in Ventura, CA. I have spent a lot of time researching, tried Google lens, but still not sure. Is it a great white? Mako? I do see serrated edges, very worn out, but do appear to be there. I tried to provide as many clear photos as possible. Any thoughts on what type of shark and age range? So curious. Any info would be helpful. Thank you!

Could this be a fulgurite? It does not appear to be magnetic, so I hesitate to think that it’s man made.

Found this on Onslow Beach, in North Carolina, washed up during low tide. It seems to have the weight and texture of a stone. On the flat side there’s a convex ball shaped protrusion right by the notch (it protrudes about 2mm from flat surface to peak of protrusion). I apologize for the standard system being used in the photo. I did measure the length of it in cm and it was exactly 4.5 cm across. Also I am not certain if this is even a fossil as I know very little about the subject. But what caught my eye was all the symmetry involved. Any input is appreciated 🤝.

Fossilized bone found on beach - marine mammal or other large land mammal? California Beach Find.
Lisa warner replied to Lisa warner's topic in Fossil ID
Thank you in advance for any help with an ID for this fossil. This is my second try on this forum - trying to follow more of the advice - thank you for your patience with my learning curve. Found on a beach in Northern California. Asked a friend who knows about marine mammals and fossils and he commented, "It doesn't remind me of a marine mammal, seems more like a mammoth or other large land mammal". From what I can see, it looks like part of a joint ... maybe the socket part of a ball and socket joint? I took another set of pictures using the handy centimeter graph paper.- 10 replies

Hi, Everyone! A belated Merry Christmas and best wishes for the New Year. It’s warm and intermittently sunny in Venice, Florida so it’s beach time. Here are some new finds and better pictures of some old finds. I still have no idea what these things are.

So I found this and it looks like a dolphin tooth, but it's my first time finding one so I was just looking for some confirmation and/or any more information that could be provided. This was found at the beach in Myrtle Beach, SC. In the past I've found a horse tooth, deer tooth, alligator tooth and am glad to be able to add another (non-shark) tooth to my collection of finds!

Fossils or geology - or both? / black stones on Antalya city beach
meteorquake posted a topic in Fossil ID
Well I don't expect these to be deeply Id'd but any information appreciated. I think they are likely fossils unless some interesting geological process caused them... Antalya city beach (S. Turkey, 36.8821897,30.6738092) There are two stones here, the first (9 pics) being rather random shapes, the second stone (last 3 pics) being entirely little circles. Some of the shapes seem rather broad and squared, others very long and narrow, and then the small circles... Many thanks in advance for enlightening me! David -
Hello everyone, I was just walking the beach on the Adriatic coast in Croatia and I found this rock with a seashell imprint inside, I am wondering could this possibly be a fossil or just a regular part of a seashell, it still has parts of shell in it. The rock I thinks is limestone which is the most common here. I appreciate your answers.
