Atoothsatooth42 Posted August 4 Share Posted August 4 (edited) Hello! I recently found this interesting looking fossil in VA on the Potomac River in Westmoreland County. I think that’s the Calvert formation. It’s approximately an inch and a quarter in length. I suspect it could be some kind of jaw bone? Croc? Fish? I have it a bend test and I did snap a piece off, possibly regrettably. Let me know what you think! Edited August 4 by Atoothsatooth42 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
