Hi, Everyone. We found some more odd fossils yesterday and I decided to put a few out for identification. I added a shot of all of them together next to a centimeter ruler for size and comparison, the rest are individual items. One looks an awful lot like a pecan, but turned out to be a brown, striated stone. As always, I’m here to learn. Thanks. Jon

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.

Hello again! Yesterday’s finds we’re another learning experience but I AM learning, so here goes. Wife found this today on Venice Beach in Florida. It was deposited more-less at our feet by a wave (it’s choppy today.) I think it looks more like somebody dropped it and it’s a fake. Any thoughts? measurements in centimeters.

I just found this on the beach and honestly thought it was a shark tooth but didn’t realize only fossilized shark teeth are black. Is this a shark tooth? And if so, what kind? (The last picture is the inside and there is a fairly deep groove). Found in Gulf Shores, Alabama.

Book recommendations for state of Mississippi fossils?
pathojenn posted a topic in General Fossil Discussion
Good evening, everyone. Does anyone have any book recommendations for fossil identification in general, but particularly for Mississippi or the Gulf Coast of the United States? I have Roadside geology of Mississippi, and it's been a great resource for some elements, but I'm looking for something a bit more detailed. Thank you! Jenn- 5 replies

Hi, I have some beach specimens to explore and ID, but I’m having trouble determining the geologic age to know where to start. Can age be determined for specimens washed ashore (or could they potentially have arrived from anywhere)? Perhaps the maps/surveys makes the answer obvious, but I’m still confused and curious. My location of interest (green arrows) is labeled as ‘undetermined’ on the 1st pic. Screenshot is subpar, but that is how the site looks on my phone). The last pic is an example of my specimens. Grateful for your help. Steph
