Good evening folks. I have an unidentified ammonite from the Tucson Mineral Show, that's all the information I have. Does anyone know what the larger species is? I believe the small, white item was glued on.

Lost all my documentation on this item. If I remember correctly it was listed as an "acorn shell?" Is it? My guess is coral or bryozoan. Help please.

Can anyone verify my analysis (?) of this specimen? It was part of a unidentified lot sale.

Hi people. I am an amateur fossil hunter and I have come across this flint on my local beach. I don't expect it to be anything special but I'd like to learn more about it if you all would be kind enough to share some of your hard acquired knowledge. Unfortunately I know next to nothing in regards to the specimen so I'm relying on you guys to give me a start. Located on a the Sheringham, Norfolk, England beach after some large stormy seas Other common finds in this area are belemnites but of a orangery brown colour I hope this is enough to give even a brief idea Many thanks in advance for any information

I'm not sure what kind of bone this is. I found it in Gatlinburg on the side of the mountain by a hwy

Buddy found this by his job. Wondering if anyone can identify it

3 cm high 2 cm long half a centimeter deep, Rogersville Alabama Half mile from the river mixture of red dirt brown dirt and some sand. This area was all Underwater for millions of years and then it was home to Native Americans, then white settlers. It’s near a plantation that grew cotton, but was closer to the slave quarters then it was the actual Cottonfield.I would say it’s a piece of sponge because it has some porous off white or light brown material in between the dark gray, light brown areas in red. I think the red might come from iron rich dirt and is responsible for some of the purple hued areas also. To be honest it does look like a wad of bubble gum that you would get from under your desk I put a Dremel grinder to it and it didn’t really do much damage it looked the same when I was done. Of course I didn’t want to mess up all of it. Any guesses or any other prep work I should do to get it more detail would be much appreciated thank you. I’ll post another couple of pictures under this maybe that will help

Going through last year's finds I found a few things that I don't recognize. All are from Pennsylvanian marine limestone. The first few all appear to be fish material of some kind. I find plenty of chondrichthyan teeth, but none of these look like any teeth I've seen, although they may be partials. Possibly some kind of bony fish scale? All images were taken under a microscope, no scale cube but they all are about 1/2" at the widest point. #1) #2)

Found this very very strange bone on the banks of Lake Waco. Any ideas?

Found North of Houston Texas USA in gravel load from Brazos River at first glance it seems to be a shell like pattern on the stone {why I picked it up} but the pattern seems to be the whole stone so thought perhaps compressed fossilized plant concretion? possible fossil wood? pulled out my macro camera and studied further....now I am stumped more photos to follow.....
-
I suspect this is coprolite but I don't know. Thanks for your thoughts.
-
No idea what I have here. Just intrigued me because there is a circular impression on one side. Absolutely no idea what it might be if it's fossil trace. More likely some geological effect. Thoughts? It's about 3.5 inches long. Myrtle beach find.

I found this on my walk through the park here on the gravel drive... Location West of Houston Texas The gravel came from a deposit from the Brazos River Its odd appearance made me pick it up...what in the heck is it though??

I'm posting this for a friend who found this little oddity mixed in with broken shells on North Myrtle Beach. My first thought was vertebrae but it seems to lack an obvious center hole, although the white spot in the first picture looks like it could be a filled-in hole. I haven't seen it in person so I can't describe it any better than that, and sorry for the photo quality...not my pics. I know that's not much to go on, but any thoughts on what it could be would be much appreciated.

This raptor claw, what do you think?
heZZ posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
I can't tell do i have here. Looks good to me. Seller says species not confirmed, possible deltadromaeosaurus.

Picked this up today on Myrtle Beach. I thought it was a steinkern, slightly different shape than others I'd collected. Then I noticed pitting - like marrow - on part of it. (See second photo.) It's a very distinctive shape, so wondering if anyone sees a recognizable bone in this, or is just a steinkern that those little hole-diggers got ahold of? Thanks!

The black part of this is so smooth and shiny, it truly looks like an enamel. But even though it is somewhat conical, it doesn't seem to be a tooth. Part of it looks very much like plain rock, but then the shape looks rather deliberate. Oh I don't know - I give up. Any ideas?
-
No idea. Kind of reminds me of a sea urchin, but not quite. Also reminds me of the kind of "hat" an acorn wears. It's got a little peak to it. Animal? Plant? (Side view and better top view added below in a post.)

This is serendipitous, I've had this fossil from Haida Gwaii for 3 years and I just recently started looking into its origin, as in this week and now I stumble on this website and someone else just posted 17 minutes ago inquiring about an HG find. So I found this on the beach and also found one that looks like the one that Haida Gwaii Beach Finds was asking about. Any insight on species and approximate era would be much appreciated!
-
I thought maybe some kind of steinkern, but part of it is pitted like bone marrow. It doesn't resemble anything else I've found. It's pinched at the top. The top pinched end is smooth and shiny - almost enamel-like. The bottom half is round and pitted.

Here's a mystery fossil I purchased at a yard sale. It has s few strange looking objects on it. I'm not sure if it's coral, crinoid, plant or animal. Anyone know?
