I found this rock in Michigan, USA. I was wondering what this strange looking fossil is. If it is a fossil. My original guess was a horn coral fossil, but I’m not sure.

I can’t figure out what this strange looking fossil is.
Maximus the rock hunter posted a topic in Fossil ID
This fossil looking thing is very weird. It seems as if it has white scales on it, and squares all over it. Even weirder is this stair case looking thing on the other side, probably by corrosion. But it looks like it has a cubic lattice structure but I don’t know. This was found in the USA, it was found in Michigan.

Ok, so this was found in the Madison county area of Illinois. I was wondering if anybody could possibly identify this for me? This last image here is taken under a UV light and it sort of has a strange glow to it. Any assistance or comments would be very much appreciated! Thanks!

Help on identifying species, age, and region of this pelecypod found in Michigan, US?
Zippy.Shrimp.Feet posted a topic in Fossil ID
I recently found a large stone hosting many of these pelecypods. I assume this is a limestone, as it has a slight reaction to acid, and there didn't seem to be any other super identifiable fossils, aside from some possible crinoid remnants. Its hinge is located far off to the side. These were found from rock placed along the Saginaw River in a small park in Michigan, so I can't say they were naturally from this area, but are local to Michigan. The ones I found range in size from about 25mm to 57mm. I would appreciate it greatly if anyone has any insight on the possible species, geological age, and where they might have originated from in the state? Thanks in advance for any help that can be provided..thumb.jpg.6360f52d61816c80248b8c39c7192d1a.jpg)

Anyone have any ideas on what these are. I know one is some type of snail. They were given to me by an elderly man. He appreciated my love of nature. I am in Texas West of Ft Worth

Hello, I'm brand new and know little, but this looks like a piece of petrified wood that was once maybe part of a tool. Does anyone know? Thank you

Hey everyone just wondering what this is…I found this in my back yard in Minneapolis MN. I don’t know if it came from this spot or if it’s from some flagstone I hauled in. But I noticed the large small shell cluster one first and said well, let’s have a look. I’m pretty sure I know when and what the small shells are but the other one I’m not sure at all. It from a split clump that I picked up. after submitting and trying to zoom in the pictures weren’t very good. You have to look closely all over anyway. It’s easy to gloss over. But there is stuff going on all over this thing. I’ll upload some better picture later when I can arrange a better setup

Hello, I hope this is the appropriate location to post this question, my apologies if it isn't. Does anyone have advice or location suggestions for fossil hunting in the Florida panhandle region? The few locations that have been suggested to me *appear* to not legally allow collecting. I am alright with just observing, but my preference is to have the option to collect. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I found several fossil while hunting in Vigo County, Indiana, USA. I've identified many fossils I've found in this creek, but I've never found anything like this one. Any ideas out there as to what this is? It's definitely raised off the yellowish rock underneath. Any help is much appreciated. Thanks everyone!

I recently saw this carnivorous mammal tooth from the Brule Formation for sale. It is labelled as being that of a Hesperocyon gregarius, but what little I know of carnivorous mammal dentition leads me to believe that the tooth could in fact come from a Hyaenodon. As always, I've decided I'm going to play it safe and ask someone of greater expertise to verify this. It is my understanding that @jpc, @Randyw and @ParkerPaleo are all Brule Formation specialists, so I will take the liberty of "@ing" you all in. Thanks in advance for any guidance Othniel

I recently came across this mosasaur tooth from the Ozan Formation for sale, and wondered if it would be possible to identify to a genus or species level. It measures around 1.5cm from the tip of the tooth to its base. It is my understanding that @pachy-pleuro-whatnot-odon is something of an expert on marine reptiles. What do you make of the tooth? Thanks in advance for any proposals Othniel
