    you’d need to find some more information about the sediments of the area you found it.

    don’t think it’s a crinoid, but it does seem to be a fossil

    they’re very badly worn, but maybe @bill-heim can work up an identity for you.

    you need to understand that if you’re going to be asking for a diagnosis, only to then tell anyone who answers that they’re wrong, then why did uou even bother asking?

    you keep telling Bill that he doesn’t know anything, yet you’re the one who stated in the caption “I have no idea”. is the term Hypocrisy known to you?

    your spoken word is not of much help at identifying this, so it would be appreciated if you provided a photo of this “back” you speak of.

    if the back shows features consistent with organisms, could you at least provide a picture of the back then?

    excuse me, but this isn’t a geology app. if your profession is aimed at rocks rather than fossils, then you’re welcome to leave us in peace and go find a different platform dedicated to geology.

    and l notice you keep demanding for professional opinions, and telling people like Bill (who probably even has a PHd) that they know nothing. now tell me, what do you know about fossils then? because apparently, if you’re going to be speaking so lowly of others, that must mean you’re some sort of rock god, which would mean that you wouldn’t even…[Read more]

    the only one doing any ego-stroking is you. it looked like a rock, he said it was a rock, and the rest of us all agree that it was a rock. done. over. you do not have to get defensive over a rock. fossilhunting isn’t a simple task. the average paleontologist will probably go through a million rocks in a fossilhunting season, and come out with…[Read more]

    that’s a replica of an Archaeopteryx. not a real fossil, but will make an interesting decorative piece nonetheless.

    you have some real personality issues. you keep assuming that everyone here has an overinflated ego and is trying to shut you down as an individual. you ask for a diagnosis? you were given a diagnosis. if you’re not happy with it, then you shouldn’t have bothered asking for it. don’t expect us to sugarcoat anything by saying Wow, you found a T Rex…[Read more]

    nobody is being an egotistical megalomaniac. do not take such offense if someone identifies one of your specimens as a rock only. finding real fossils is nowhere near as easy as you might think, and only one in several hundred thousand rocks will turn out to be a fossil. this, for example, l will have to say is just a pseudofossil (although more,…[Read more]

    nobody here is a hater. if somebody tells you that something is a rock, then it is a rock. end of story. you do not need to make a big deal over it. we’re just giving you our personal opinion on a specimen, so it would be appreciated if you did not take it as some sort of attack aimed directly at you.
