Got them at a mineral and fossil fair today. I'm not sure what species of fish they are...looks like a prehistoric minnow...=D. The fossil on top of the large fish fossil is a small jaw piece of an early horse merycoidodon culbertsoni. And the little square case has a mineral called Hemimorphite...it looked cool... :laugh: .

All together they all cost me $80. Pfft...Not as bad as my teachers...they bought like...$3,000 worth. But they were KICK ASS fossils.

Do you ever think it's possible to like fish too much? :laugh:



They're pretty cool. What are you going to do with them?

Well...I'm giving the smaller fish fossil to my uncle and the gemstone to my grandmother. The horse jaw and larger fish fossil I'm keeping with the rest of my fossils on a display shelf.
