Hi, Walter, It wouldn’t be appropriate to share on iDigBio if it’s on display and has the potential to be sold at a later date. I’ve added in the field notes where it is displayed.

6 years, 4 months ago6 years, 4 months agoHi Walter @walter-stein !
I posted pictures of my 2 black rocks or possible bone(s). I hope you can take a look and, if you think they are something potentially, let me know. I think they remind me of something like scutes(?). They just aren’t a typical looking rock. Hope you are having a great day!
Thank you,
Gail
