Can anyone help me figure this out. Found in town in Dubois, Wyoming. At first thought petrified wood, then started to wonder bone. Looks like a claw mark on it. Any thoughts?

Hi all! First post here! I'm a newbie fossil enthusiast, went fossil hunting near Whitby and found this interesting piece. I'm not quite sure what it might be? It's about the size of a playing card, and from what I can tell it has pyrite growing on the sides of it. I gave it a good wash and scrub with a toothbrush, any thoughts? Thanks!

Friend of mine found this near Agate Beach, Oregon on the Pacific coast. Looks like some kind of bone to me but no idea what. Measures approximately 10cm in all 3 dimensions

This rock was found or bone fossil was found in southwest Florida. It has been rinsed thoroughly. Everything that is attached to it is part of it. It is pretty wild. I’ve never found anything this large or quite like this so any help or suggestions of what it might be Would be possibly more than one thing who knows would be much appreciated. Thank you very much for your help in advance.

The dense bone, with a heavier than usual specific gravity to what you would expect from a bone. It was found at 0.5m below ground level within weathered Langport Member, Blue Lias Formation and Charmouth Mudstone Formation.

A break from the usual dinosaurs, I am quite interested in this as it is an oddity. It is apparently a cro-magnon femur. From the site of a gravel pit along the former San River in Poland. I am waiting to hear the measurements from seller, but my questions are thus A - Is it actually real B - Is it actually legal Like, selling/buying a bone from a cro-magnon/early human seems like something that shouldn't be legal. Seller is in Europe, would I have any issues exporting it to the UK?

Hello everyone! Here I am with another mystery bone from the boulonnais (Wimereux) region - North of France. The layers here are kimmeridgian and titonian (late Jurassic). I have a few pieces that I’ve collected over the course of 3 days all at the same spot. I managed to match the first three pieces, with two pieces that I already glued together since I was 100% sure of how they fit together. The first two pieces together: Then, I have this third piece that also match but I didn’t find the perfect angle to glue them yet: And together, they would look like this: Total size would be 15 cm broad and 20+cm long (that’s 6 inch broad and 8 inch long). Now I was thinking about part of (distal end) a plesiosaur propodial. But I’ve found a couple plesiosaur and pliosaur propodial from there and they are way flatter at the end. Also, they are mostly the same shape on both sides. Whereas here the « upper part » (the two pieces already glued together) are chunky on one side and flatter on the other side. Has anyone got an idea? Thank you very much!

I have a couple of these, this is the best specimen. I think they are from a mosasaur but only because they were found on the NSR. There are two indentions/holes that don't show up that well in the picture. The first picture shows the indention the best, there is a corresponding one on the other side. I apologize the lighting didn't make that more clear. If it helps in identification, I can retake pics.

Hello! I had a nice afternoon in northwest Dallas County, Texas, finding some beautiful pyrite and even a couple of fossilized fish skeletons (my extraction abilities were lacking). This bone came out of the clay at water level in the creek I was exploring. Right where I was finding fish skeletons, but this bone seems to belong to a far larger creature than the small and fragile fish skeletons I was finding embedded in the shale. Thanks in advance for your assistance!

I found this at Flag Ponds and it has me a bit confused. I’ve never found a rock like this at any of the Calvert areas. I’ve stumbled across where clay had been binding gravel/pebbles together and it was soft and squishy. This is rock solid and also has some bone fragments in it. Has anyone else ever stumbled across anything like it from Calvert?

Very hard bone--not sure it qualifies as a fossil. Been the ocean a LONG time is my guess. Found on beach in Delaware.

I found this small and delicate, nearly intact marine reptile bone in Big Brook yesterday, and I'm wondering if anyone can identify it. The bone is just under an inch in length.

Hoping there's enough of this bone to ID. I'm 95% sure it's old, either Pleistocene or Oligocene (Chandler Bridge), based on the stratigraphy. The preservation looks similar to articulated Chandler Bridge material (white outside, reddish interior), which would imply marine. Not certain about that though.

Hi ive been prepping this bone which I thought was a vertebrae. Then I thought partial neutral. Now I’m not sure what it is. It seems to be hollow through the centre with quite a wide cavity.
