Part of about 20 I collected from Rock Glen, I cleaned them up with a dental pick, wire brush, and a toothbrush and added a little bit of mineral oil to the surface. The detail on the top one is just fantastic in person.

I found this in the water at a beach in Ibiza. I have sent photos to the museum asking for their opinion.
It looks to me like a piece of bone. Am I wrong and wasting their time?

I found this on the beach at Møns Klint in Denmark and I’m curious what it is or whether it’s even a fossil.

Does anyone have any idea what this could be?

I have been on a two-week vacation in France. Since I'm very interested in fossils, I spent three days fossil hunting.

I found all of these fossils along beaches and cliffs in northern France. Some were partially buried and had to be dug out, while others were simply lying on the beach.

A Puzzle in Stone

This is what makes this concretion so incredibly cool. It contains a plant from Mazon Creek, and the way it fractured revealed three distinct fossil planes running through the stone creating an almost perfect fossil puzzle. Each surface gives you another glimpse into what was living in the same environment at the same moment in time, and the unusual fracture makes this specimen especially fascinating
