RJB Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 Here is a picture of two crabs. They both have problems like most crabs but these two came out perty dang good for B-Grades. These are both Pulalius vulgaris from Washington. RB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PFOOLEY Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 Your "B grade" material is another man's treasure. "I am glad I shall never be young without wild country to be young in.

FossilDAWG Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 He's clearly grading on some sort of a negative curve, trying to bring down the average. In any other class, those would be an "A". Don Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJB Posted November 14, 2015 Author Share Posted November 14, 2015 Thanks guys, but with only a piece of a rear end on the left one and none on the righthand one, these are most definetly b-grade crabs. A Grade crabs are hard to come by, very far and few between. RB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ptychodus04 Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 I would argue that these are "A"s for the whole of the fossil collecting universe (RB excluded). If A Grade is few and far between, I would list those as A+ Grade. But, this is coming from a guy who struggles to pass the crab classes and is happy with a C-.

IonRocks Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 I'd love to have a "C' grade crab if these are "B" grade.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJB Posted November 17, 2015 Author Share Posted November 17, 2015 Hey Ionrocks, I do have a couple of dozen 'C-Grade' crabs sittin on my bench, but I have a real problem of getting to finishing them. The amount of time to finish them is not condusive to the amount of moneys I would get for them. So there they sit..... for now. RB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
