Found this in one of those shark & mosasaur tooth bags from Morocco Looks like it could be bone to me, not sure what is up with the hole in it though.

Hello , I’m new here but thought this would be the best place to ask. I found this on a beach in Kent, Uk and I’m wondering if it’s a fossil or a big weird pebble? It looks like the shape of a plesiosaur leg bone but could that be my imagination running wild? I find a lot of small belemnites and ammonites here. Thanks for looking and your time.

Riverside Co., CA Lots of petrified wood in the area, but most of that is much darker and this looked like it might be a fragment of bone. Thoughts?

Piece of bone found at Big Brook - any way of identifying what it might be from?
TRexEliot posted a topic in Fossil ID
I found this fragment of what I think is bone at Big Brook yesterday. Is there any way to tell what it might be from? The shape and density of the fibers kind of remind me of some of the pieces of mososaur jaw I've seen posted, but I don't know if there's any way to ID it from such a small piece.

Hi all, I think this toe bone from the Hell Creek in South Dakota has to either be a digit 2 phalanx 2 from a dromaeosaurid or it's probably not even dinosaurian. Please give me your thoughts. Thanks!!

Can anyone ID this tooth? It was found on a creek bed which had tumbled onto a formation of blue-clay. I had to remove a small portion of one end to verify its content. It was found in SW, MS on 04-08-23. Other findings include unknown type of rib bones, horse teeth, tapir teeth, and cow skull (questionable).

Is that all Spinosaurus’s bone?
Cris Tang posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
Hi Everyone, A seller sent me many pictures and told me that are from Spinosaurus. But he can’t give me more detail. Would you help me to know about which part of Spinosaurus is, please? I marked the red circles for them. Thank you very very much

I found this in a natural spring in 2022 down in Florida near Apopka. We were in the area for a family vacation and as we were floating down the stream, my hand hit this, so I went under water and dug it up. Not sure whether it's bone or a small piece of wood fossilized. It sounds like marble when I place it on our counter. So whatever it is, it seems to be fossilized/petrified.Thanks for any info you may have.

Hi everyone I'm very new to fossils and fossil collecting and I just bought some off a private seller who got them from the somerset museum. Someone said the lighter one is a stingray barb, the other looks a bit jaw like to be with tiny teeth but im not sure. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Wondering if the experts wouldn't mind weighing in on an ID for these. They were found half-submerged in a spring creek near an old cow pasture and they seem to be in at least the beginning stages of mineralization. They don't quite pass the burn test though I've heard that's not necessarily definitive, and they're quite rock-like - the pieces I used for the test make a nice clink when dropped on cement. My question is mostly whether or not, in these conditions, the process of mineralization could occur in 100 years or less (which is about the length of time the land had been used as pasture), making them "pre-old" as I've read is possible in other threads. As per the sticky thread, the creek in question is in the driftless area of Minnesota. Also I can provide measurements if that would help, but I'm under the impression that cow and buffalo femurs are too similar for that to make much difference. Thanks!

This is a creek find from SW, MS. It was found amongst other types of teeth. It appears the tip has broken off. Can anyone please identify it. Help is appreciated. Thanks in return.

A large broken bone...this belonged to a fossil collecting neighbour here in the UK. It is huge but sadly broken into 3 pieces. It is approx. 20 inches long and 7 inches at the widest point. I don't know where it is from. I'd love to know what it is and if I should just leave it as it is or repair it in some way. Someone suggested that it might be a mammoth humerus. Many thanks!

We have been finding lots of fossil looking objects on our property in South Austin, Texas. Is this one a fossil or just a rock? (Other finds to come)

Found this tiny fragment on a trip to Big Brook yesterday. I've been visiting Big Brook for a long time, and have never come across anything like it. Appears to be a small shard (about .5x1cm) of bone or enamel with a scale-like hexagonal structure on one side, and a bony texture on the other.

Hi all! I’ve had this sitting on my shelf for some time without knowing what type of bone it is. Reasonably confident it’s a dinosaur bone but not sure. Any help is greatly appreciated! Thank you! Measures 5 1/2 inches by 3 3/8 by 2 inches thick

Here are a few pieces from my collection I have been wondering able about. Are any of these fossils? The one on the bottom left corner looks like it could be a footprint top me.

Hello, I recently visited Yaverland on the Isle of Wight and found some material which may or may not be fossilised remains. I would be exceptionally grateful if someone would be able to tell be if these are fossil bone. Photos 1-2 are of the same rock from different angles. Photos 3-5 are also of the same rock. Many thanks, W

Hi - Any idea what this weird bone is? Found it in the surf across from where some unidentified mammal bones were found in the cliffs. Thanks!
