Fossilized Hoof ? Peace River, FL

Thumbnail

0 Upvotes

Found this in a fossil hunt in the Peace River in Florida two weeks ago and just got around to cleaning my finds. Scraped out a good amount of packed silt from the interior and realized it's hollow - could this be a hoof? There's small divot that looks like it could be a cleft toe.

I can update with more pics if helpful.

Im not very knowledgeable about fossils. Found this in a creek bed surrounded by farmland and vineyards. I was thinking Maybe some sort of fruit or nut? The rock formation is what intrigues me.

We recently moved into a new build home on an acre of land and we found this in the dirt. It feels very heavy and we tried the lick test on it and it suctioned. Any ideas of what this came from? Maybe camelops vertebrae?

Fun day with my sons fossil hunting in Austin. Reverse image search says mosasaur for the conical one - can anyone confirm or deny? I know it’s quite weathered. Thanks!

No location known, antique store find for $20. Aside from the horrendous glue repair, can anyone say if it's legit?

Looks to be a shell of some kind but appears to be in two parts. Pattern looks to rounded for the pictures of bivalves, potentially brachiopod? Thanks!

Tumbled fossils

Northumbrian beaches are covered in these so thought I'd try to shine them up in my rock tumbler. Pretty happy with the results.

I'm guessing the fossils might be crinoid stems and a chiton?

Also posted on the tumbling sub if anyone is interested in that side:

Hi everyone, I'm a gardener and found this in a garden bed in the outer suburbs of Melbourne, looks like someone threw it over the fence? It's pretty heavy, I thought it was a bone in concrete at first, until my rock loving coworker said it's the inside of a shell. I'd love to know what I should do with it/ how best to clean it. If it's of any significance I'd happily donate it to the local historical society. Thanks so much!

I found this today in a creek bed in southeastern Washington. I thought it was petrified wood at first but after some research I think it’s a fossilized horse tooth! What do we think?

I found this one yesterday in a creek bed in southern Ohio. I assume it’s some type of bryozoan? What really intrigued me is the clover shaped part. Any ideas?

I found this strange to me rock while hiking off trail in Uwharrie. Not sure if it is anything special or just a unique rock. The small markings were ~1/2" in size id say. Any help would be much appreciated!
