Rypick Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 Can someone please help me ID this fossil? I found it in rocks washed up on the shore of Lake Ontario in Wilson, NY. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tidgy's Dad Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 (edited) No idea how big your coin is. However, that's a cross-section through an orthocerid nautiloid.

Mainefossils Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 (edited) I agree, this is an example of an orthocerid nautiloid cross-section. Nice fossil! P.S. @Tidgy's Dad, I have edited the photo and added scale. Hope this helps! Edited September 13, 2021 by Mainefossils 1 The more I learn, the more I find that I know nothing.

It's small change... 4 growing old is mandatory but growing up is optional. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mainefossils Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 My bad, cannot believe how I did that. It is fixed now. The more I learn, the more I find that I know nothing. Regards, Asher Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
