conleys Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 (edited) Hello, I am back! If you didn't know, I buy fossils on the internet sometimes. On EBay, I found a cheap vertabrae. It was only worth 5$ and they said it seemed fossilized, so why not buy it. I got it now, and it definitely is fossilized, just I have no clue what it belongs to. If anyone knows what it might be, tell me. Bye! -Con Edited April 16, 2015 by conleys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rejd Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 Any idea where it came from? Also, what is the scale of it?

njfossilhunter Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 I first thought mosasaur too....but the back of the vert seems to widen a bit to much...What about alligator..is that a possibility 1 TonyThe Brooks Are Like A Box Of Chocolates,,,, You Never Know What You'll Find.

conleys Posted April 23, 2015 Author Share Posted April 23, 2015 Sorry I was gone for a bit. It does seem to be about 3-4 inches. I guess it is a mosasaur. I will put it next to my mosasaur jaw! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
