LiamL Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 (edited) When i found this pebble I wasnt expecting much from it. I thought it was just afew ichthyosaur eye plates When I started preparing it a partial small crocodile skull was slowly revealed. Here it is in comparison with my complete larger skull so you can see which part of the skull it is.

This one could be a cobble though but might just sneak in as a pebble Edited October 30, 2023 by Doctor Mud Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
