Hi All, I have this small turtle skull (preserved looking at the palate), and I was wondering, what were your thoughts re prep? do I prep it out totally? or leave it as it is? looking forward to your thoughts Rodney

I found this coral in central Kentucky. Many are mostly free of any matrix. I am planing to put them in small glass display boxes to give as holiday gifts. Should I leave them as-is? Or can I brighten them up somehow, without taking away their character? They have all been found in an old rail road cut. The matrix around the other fossils appears to be mostly sandstone, with some in limestone. I took a few pictures of the loose coral and some still in matrix. All have been found within ~75 yard radius. I haven’t prepared them in anyway, other than sitting in the rain. My plan is to go over them with a toothbrush, then warm soapy water with a brushing. Thanks in advance for any suggestions, thoughts or opinions.

Any recommendations on how to prep this? I am brand new to this world but was fortunate enough to discover what I believe to be a juvenile turtle, Chisternon Undatum, a few years ago at one of the commercial quarries on the Green River Formation in Wyoming.

Hello, I'm curious what the deal is with fossil pinecones. Are very rare or in high demand? Do they take a lot of time to prep? I would think they'd preserve easily and hence be quite common, at least compared to something like permineralized fleshy fruit, but they seem relatively scarce and quite popular. Thanks.

Is This Crinoid Worth Further Professional Prepping?????
minnbuckeye posted a topic in General Fossil Discussion
Six weeks ago, I found this crinoid stem with a broken calyx peeking out of the matrix. Today, I used a Dremel to expose more of the stem . As I look at the specimen after cleaning it a bit, I now am wondering if there might be a slight chance of anything substantial hiding in the rock that might be worth a professional prepper going at. Your thoughts will allow me to make a decision. Thanks for any advice. Mike
