I found this approx. 25 years ago along the Savannah river and it's been sitting in a jar. My son is trying to identify it for a science project.

- Lyme Regis Mosasaur May 9, 2013Fossil Collector: Paige R Location: Lyme Regis, United Kingdom [Editor: Very nice find! This appears to be a handsome mosasaur tooth. A mosasaur is a marine version of the modern monitor lizard some of which could achieve enormous size. The large root seems atypical for mosasaur teeth at this location so maybe collectors more familiar with Lyme [...] […]

- Fossilized Wood or Wood Casts? April 29, 2013Fossil Hunter: Buddy Location: Central Ohio [Well, let's try a mash up just to spark conversation so we will add fossil root casts as another alternative. Would anyone like to leave a response in favor of any of these?] […]
- Hard Rock Crabbing April 23, 2013Fossil Collector: Chris N. Location: Pebble Beach, California [Editor's Note: Our first thought was that this is just a bit of conglomerate rock, but that triangular shape in the lower left looked a bit too familiar.

Location: Pocono Mountains, Pennsylvania [Editors: Well, well racked our brains because we know we have seen this before, but simply could not remember what it is. Maybe a large brachiopod? If anyone recognizes it, please leave a response and put us out of our misery!] […]

It looks like either an early toothed whale (see examples of Squalodon atlanticus) or a seal tooth of sorts…either way I’d bet the farm that it’s a marine mammal tooth.
I am only 12 years old, i enjoy fossil hunting. However i just found a small tooth and a small set of teeth, the tooth is fossilized the set of teeth are not. I would like to upload pictures but i do not know how. PLEASE HELP
