Dee2015 Posted December 15, 2023 Share Posted December 15, 2023 Both of our dad’s introduced us to fossils 50 years ago-IA & TX. We have been very happy/shocked to find some fossils very near us over the last 2 years. And in Minnesota! hadrosaur toe? Fun to dream of what was here.

Fin Lover Posted December 15, 2023 Share Posted December 15, 2023 Welcome to the forum! Fin Lover My favorite things about fossil hunting: getting out of my own head, getting into nature and, if I’m lucky, finding some cool souvenirs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fossildude19 Posted December 15, 2023 Share Posted December 15, 2023 Welcome to the Forum. I don't think that is a hadrosaur toe. Looks like some sort of concretion, to me. 1 Tim - VETERAN SHALE SPLITTER VFOTM --- APRIL - 2015 __________________________________________________ "In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks."

minnbuckeye Posted December 15, 2023 Share Posted December 15, 2023 Welcome from another Minnesotan!!! Concretion would be my first guess. But when posting pictures, it is preferable to put some sort of measuring device along side the fossil in question. In addition, a little more specific location would be advised to post. Minnesota has formations dating from the Cambrian clear through the Cretaceous!!! These suggestions will allow forum members to provide you with the most accurate identifications. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tidgy's Dad Posted December 15, 2023 Share Posted December 15, 2023 Yes, what I used to call a snakeskin concretion. Hello, Dee, and a very warm welcome to TFF from Morocco. Life's Good! Tortoise Friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
