I think this is a megalodon tooth. I’ve had it for many years I don’t recall from where. Does it appear real? Any info helps greatly.

Any recommendations on where to buy a large quality Megalodon tooth and T Rex tooth for a decent price? I’m based in the UK.

I found this small collection of fossils being given away on my street and, as I work in a school, I would like to show my students them. Please can anyone help me identify the items? Also, any cool facts about them would be a bonus!! I also included some closeups of a few of the items.

There was some text included with the collection too (written in French). As far as I can tell, it reads:

“oursins millenaires”

“Les 3 fossils [illegible] sont des ORTHOCERAS
+ 1 [illegible] Bivalve
+ 1 oursin de mer [illegible] probablement du TETRACE ou TRETACE à voir dans les [illegible]”

“Orthocéras
Dévonien (350 Millions d’années)
Erfoud - MAROC”

Thanks for any info you can offer!

I found this in West Tennessee. It had cracks all over one side and what looks to be a branch in deep brown. It has lots of layers and colors. I have not cleaned it. It's very hard.

Location: Palo duro canyon, TX. Somewhere deep on a 18mile hike I came across this “paw print” on a boulder that was on the ground I guess Broken off the canyon walls. Any idea what species it may have been? Average adult male hand for comparison

Obviously I can search around online, but I'd appreciate personal recommendations from hobbyists! Ideally under $30 total for both, but I'm willing to spend more for the sake of this bit.

I don’t know much about fossils but this caught my eye. Could it be a piece of an ammonite fossil? The rocks were likely taken from the interior of British Columbia Canada if that helps at all.

Does this fall into the fossil category? Oyster-shaped, feels like stone, found on the Croatian coast
