Really nice man! It's been years since I went out looking for fossils and when I did I never found anything that nice looking.

I forgot what state you were in, I buy most of mine other than the shark teeth stuff and other Miocene fossils which I can dig for in my own town at shark tooth hill, it aint easy though. Thought you were in Oregon or Colorado or one of those hippie towns lol.:D
 
Lol no, I live in Pennsylvania. We have a lot of Ordovician, Silurian and Devonian fossils here if you know where to look.
 
If you are not too far drive to NJ to Colts Neck or one of the Monmouth county fossil streams. Fossils everywhere. Shark teeth, fish fangs, and Jurassic Dino fossils mostly large sea predators like Mosasaurs. I went as child growing up in Monmouth Cty and recently took my kids there aged 6 and 9 at the time. Good times....Easy the find really nice stuff I have seen for sale elsewhere for big bucks. Free. 5 fossil limit per person....honor system.
 
Big fossils are big bucks...little fossils....not so much. Trilobites like that are usually 3-15 dollars depending on quality. Investment quaility fossils can be anywhere from 400. to over a million dollars.

Its really amazing. I assume most of the expensive ones would come with some sort of certificate? Since my carbon dating machines in the shop, and my specro microscope is currently being used by nasa, it'd be pretty impossible for me to tell if it was real or not.

But where would you get a certification of authenticity for the certificate? :D :ROFL:
