sixgill pete Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 (edited) Yay! Congrats Don!!! That find deserved to be a winner! Thank you lissa. Any plans to come south anytime? I drove by Pittsburgh on the Pa. turnpike about 4 weeks ago on my way from Kent, Ohio to Carlisle.I was in Kent for work, my wife was with me so we made a long weekend after we left there on Friday. Went to Gettysburg, Hershey and the Amish country. Had a good time but did no fossiling.

I had founds bits and pieces of them before and had seen one almost as complete but much smaller. So this one is special to me.

sixgill pete Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 Thanks TNCollector, but the only prep work was a wash down with a light spray from a water hose and a toothbrush to get dirt out of the sutures. This one was found clean.
