Hi all, I was wondering if anyone can help identifying the piece below. As far as I’m aware it was found by a family member in the uk along side several ammonites but unfortunately that’s all I know. Sorry if this is an obvious question I’m new to this 👍🏻

Hello My name is Ben I live in western Montana. I came across these imprints I believe are dinosaur . While researching them I Saw pictures of other skin prints that reminded me of some other fossils from a different area. So I went there and was lucky enough to find them under snow. What is strange is there are identical imprints to these still there in the rock , maybe i have the skin and the imprints remain. My first thought was stream bed but the bumps are only on the surface and this heart shaped fossil was with them. Any thoughts or information would be appreciated. IMG_3512.dng IMG_3513.dng

Help identifying please. Just wondering if anyone knows what species or bones there fossils are. They were found in the Hell Creek Formation in Dawson county Montana. If my photos are not good I can try to take more. The first fossil is a rib but was wondering if anyone knows what species this is from? I was thinking edmontasaurus or triceratops? The second fossil I have no idea what it is. Thank you for helping

Found this in an area of Kimble County, Tx while searching for arrowheads. Can anyone shed some light as to what it may be?

Found by a riverbank of the river Tees (UK) Might be a pseudofossil? But I'm not qualified to guess - make sure to let me know if I should delete the post, thanks :))

I found this on the inlet beach on Jekyll Island. Any ID ideas?

I have found this thing next to the one small mountain river in Serbia. It looks like a bone, but feels like a stone. Is this a fossil?

I found this fossil on the beach around Poole Harbour in Dorset. The length from "head" to "tail" is 5cm, I know that soft bodied creatures like leeches don't generally fossilise, but the way that the segments vary from large to small make it look like some sort of worm. Any ideas?

I found this while combing the Delaware bay beach in Fortescue, Nj and I'm unsure if it is a recent tooth dropping or a fossil. I'd also like to know what kind of shark if possible

I’ve had this fossil in my collection but never took a deep look at it until now. It seems like it could be a bone or a tooth of some sort. There are calcite crystals that formed on one end while the whole piece has a unique pattern.

All of these were found on gravel bars on Elm Creek in north-eastern Kansas, as we kayak on it a lot.

Are these "black rocks" fossils, pumice, slag? I'm so confused
natwell19 posted a topic in Fossil ID
hello all, I found a lot of this specific type of rock and I thought they could be fossils. Now I'm not so sure. They have what appears to have a spongy inside and flat outside, on the sides that are still there. I tried to take pictures to show them well. A few of the pieces have two "lobes" at one end and the lobes appear to be splitting. They are all the same color, though some are dry and some are damp still. I was trying to figure this out on my own, and I thought it could possibly be coal (if not a fossil), but i really don't know how to test it. My husband did try to light it on fire... it did not catch fire. If you need more pictures, let me know. I got these in a river in Williamson County Tennessee. I believe the only dinosaur we have that's been found is hadrosaur specifically edmontosaurs. There have been multiple types of megafauna mammals like sloths, rhinos, and mammoths. If these are nothing, I will be sad, but at least I'll know not to pick these up anymore! LOL. Thanks! IMG_4308.heic

I was able to get my childhood rock and fossil collection and was curious about getting some id’ed. These two were purchased at a rock show in Denison Texas years ago. No clue on any vital info. Around 3 inches long (75mm). Any help would be appreciated.

What is this egg fossil?
Big Mac boi posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
So I was on an auction website and an egg caught my eye it was stated it was 1 million to 2.58 million years old. It was also stated that this egg was found with other eggs in the nest, and they were selling the other eggs separately. I did research on it- the name on the website as a Madagascar Abrupt Giant Tortoise - egg - Aldabrachelys abrupta. When I searched for it the shell of the presumed fossil popped up and that's about it no art work no skulls no other fossils just the shell, so I thought you guys might know.

Hello all! I have finally finished sorting close to 300 pounds of anthill from north central New Mexico. I recovered (literally) close to 18,000 fossils! Most are identifiable, but there are a few that I can't put a name to. I am going to put up several for your expert analysis (not being facetious, you guys have an enormous amount of knowledge!) to see what you have to say. I will repeat this introduction for each grouping of photos, only changing the take number. Thank you all in advance! This first one has an extremely close accessory cusp. A pathological tooth?
-
Hi everyone, hope you are all well. Can anyone please identify this tooth please?
-
Got this and can’t tell what species it is, if you know please tell me! Thanks.

I did my first microfossil sifting on the sandbars of the Kaw river in Kansas (I posted the trip on the forum ). Anywho, I found this microfossil that reminds me of modern day cowrie in pattern but I'm guessing its a coral? The second I am pretty sure is coral, the third is a worn crinoid segment? and the fourth, ummm I don't have a clue- one side has three parallel ridges- thoughts? Appreciate all the help as always! Bone

Hi all! I'd be grateful if anyone could identify this bone fragment, which is allegedly the distal end of a small theropod femur according to the dealer. It comes from the Isle of Wight, the age is Lower Cretaceous and size: 2 cmtrs height. As you can see, the distal end is somewhat eroded and the bone is hollow. Thanks!

This is one of many fossils I have that range from marine fossils of ordovician or silurian to plant fossils in paleolithic era. Some are likely common to those with much experience, but a few Ive not been able to see even one near the same. Any help or even a point to the right path is greatly appreciated. PS, these arent enough I know but Im limited by size & technical skill apparently.
