jwlrygi Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 New to group and fossil hunting in general. Went to NJ beaches a week ago with my wife for our 16th wedding anniversary. We walked 4 beaches in 1 day. *(I do not recommend Atlantic city. Just got a bunch of negative energy on their boardwalk walking past the casinos. ) we collected several "cool" looking minerals and whatever we thought was unique. As I was looking at a few of these things in bright natural sunlight I started seeing patterns in the crystal looking ocean rocks. I shined a bright flashlight on it at different angles and it became more and more clear that it might be a fossil. Crill or Shrimp of some sort . As you look around the stone it crystallized looking like some type of ocean dweller. Tell me what you think. I seriously am a newbie and fascinated with fossils and crystals. Hope the video is good enough. You can see the shrimp type of fossil crystallized like that. I may be dead wrong. But nonetheless it's fun finding them and finding out. Thank you for the forum. I'm happy to learn what I can. 20231029_224511.mp4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psittacosaur9 Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 (edited) Looks to me like an interesting pebble. Doubt it's a fossil, but keep looking! You can find fossils in New Jersey - http://www.fossilspot.com/STATES/NJ.HTM Edited October 30, 2023 by Psittacosaur9 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
