Xiphactinus Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 Is it rock? If so, it looks like a crushing fish tooth. (or a bean) :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auspex Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 Some kind of crusher tooth (ie: "drumfish")?

Haddy Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 Some kind of crusher tooth (ie: "drumfish")? Bean or drumfish? Here's some drumfish teeth from my local area. The ones I have are blackish. http://www.fossilsofnj.com/skates_rays/drumfish.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barefootgirl Posted September 12, 2009 Share Posted September 12, 2009 I like your bean/possible crusher tooth. Whatever it is hang on to it.

dutchhunter Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 usually the teeth are hollow on one side...mine is not. Actually this tooth is hollow. In the first picture the black spot is the hollow part. Greetings Jeroen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coco Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 I am sure it's a bean. I have found several ones in Reunion Island beaches. But I don't know wich plant it comes from.

Cris Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 Edd, I found an IDENTICAL seed in G'ville one time...Tapped it to my shovel and it was HARD, sounded just like glass...Kept it forever and one day I decided to take a lighter to it. It took a sec, but burnt. This is a modern seed to something. I was fooled also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auspex Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 Ooooooh, maybe it's a Meg seed! Plant it and see what happens!

Seldom Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 Ooooooh, maybe it's a Meg seed! Plant it and see what happens!

lawooten Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 I say when in doubt plant it but I would bet it is a seed and not fossilized. The best days are spent collecting fossils Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
