Fossil Specimens for Sale

PAGE 2

I am selling most of my collection of fossils. They're been taking up space in my rock room for a couple decades now, and I need the room for...well...more fossils! 95% of these were collected and prepared by me. I collected most of them from Oregon, Washington, Idaho, and Wyoming. I'm including what I know about them, but like any amateur collection some of them are mysteries. It can be difficult to determine exactly what species a fossil is without a degree in paleontology so my IDS are NOT perfect. All are labeled with the number on the page in an inconspicuous place, it can easily be rubbed off with alcohol. So if you want to know exactly what they are and where they were found (if my fading memory kicks into gear) then write it down or take a screen shot. These are prepared for display as they were found. Most have a very thin coating of a fossil preserrvation plastic to protect them from getting smudged. If you don't like it then it can be easily removed with a little acetone and patience. If there's any reconstruction I'll point it out, but 99% of them are as they were in nature. Quite a few were exposed with various tools but none are "embellished" to make them look prettier. I do sand down the matrix on some of them, those are easy to spot :)
None of the photos are enhanced or changed in any way - indeed, the photos don't do many of them proper justice.
All pieces will be sent Parcel Post mail or flat rate priority mail, depending on weight, whichever is less unless you specify the shipping method. The majority will be parcel post (generally under $8.00) or priority mail padded flat rate envelope = $9.55.

Fossil 21

Klaskanine, WA 3" wide Pulalius vulgaris, ventral prep. It is all there, nicely posed, so if you back it with epoxy putty and prep from the top down you'll get a perfect crab. Lincoln Creek Fm., Late Eocene - early Miocene Period, abt. 30 MYA.

$20.00

SOLD
Fossil 22 Mitchell, OR 2-3/4" wide ammonite from an area where white calcite veins cut through the mudstone as it fractured. Large size for the location. Cretaceous Hudspeth Fm. 80 MYA.

$12.00

Fossil 23 Mitchell, OR & MT Largest is 2-1/4", smallest is 1-1/4". 2 ammonites on the ends are from the Cretaceous Hudspeth Fm. around Mitchell, OR. Possibly Desmoceras. 100 MYA. Small one is probably Hoploscaphites, from the Bearpaw Shale Fm., northeast Montana. Late Cretaceous Period, 80 MYA.

$8.00

YES
Fossil 24 Central OR Coast Trio of snails. 3 speices, 3 locations on the central OR coast. My guesses are Cryptonica, Calicantharus, and "not enough to go by". I'm not that good at identifying snails. Astoria Fm., Miocece Period, about 14-23 MYA.

$8.00

YES
Fossil 25 Mitchell, OR Largest is 2-3/4". 3 ammonites from the Cretaceous Period, Hudspeth Fm. around Mitchell. Possibly Desmoceras. 100 MYA.

$6.00

YES
Fossil 26 Twin Rivers, WA 3-1/2" across. Thalianassa mud shrimp. What you're looking at is a male shrimp, they have a claw that is sometimes larger than their body! The rest is pieces of the shell and legs. I have exactly one of these that is completely intact, they are so delicate it's extremely rare to find one. One of my best Thalianassa, but I already have better from this location. Twin Rivers Fm., late Eocene to early Miocene, abt. 34 MYA.

$10.00

YES
Fossil 27 Coal Creek, WA (2) 3" oysters, they are very difficult to identify so I don't know the species. Very well preserved for this location. Colwlitz Fm., Eocene Period, about 41-33 MYA.

$9.00

Fossil 28 Vernonia, OR Shell is 1-1/2" long. Macroacaena schencki crab, most of the time the shell (carapace) is all there is. They have 2 big spines sticking out of their side, sadly this guy lost his. Keasey Fm., late Eocene–early Oligocene Period, abt. 40 MYA.

$6.00

YES
Fossil 29 Newport, OR Left is 2-1/2" wide. Trio of clams. Left to right Panopea abrupta, Katherinella angustifrons, Anadara devincta, Astoria Fm., Miocene Period, about 14-23 MYA.

$6.00

YES
Fossil 30 Asfla, Morocco 3 1/2" Choffaticeras segne ammonite (say that 3 times fast!). There is no shell left, only the mold, like the majority of these. You see these cut in half and polished at just about any rock shop on the planet, but you may never see a whole specimen. It is extremely thin, almost like a flying saucer! Late Cretaceous Period, 94.3 to 89.3 MYA.

$8.00

YES
Fossil 31 Coal Creek, WA (2) 3" oysters, they are very difficult to identify so I don't know the species. Very well preserved for this location, the left is the bottom shell; both halves are there. Colwlitz Fm., Eocene Period, about 41-33 MYA.

$8.00

Fossil 32 Asfla, Morocco 2-34" Goniatites, a relative of ammonites. You see these cut in half and polished at just about any rock shop on the planet, but you may never see a whole specimen. Devonian Period, 360-420 MYA.

$9.00

YES
Fossil 33 Coos Bay, OR 5" Teredo clam bored petrified wood. Most of the wood has rotted away leaving the tightly packed in molds of their burrows. Teredo are boring clams that still eat pilings and wood ship hulls to this day. It came out in 2 pieces so there is a repaired break. Empire Fm., Miocene Period, about 7 MYA.

$8.00

YES
Fossil 34 Newport, OR 2" long Crepidula praerupta, a really weird colonial snail. First a female settles on the sea floor, and gradually a bunch of males pile up on top of it. Then the whole bunch crawl sideways along the mud feeding. When the female dies, the next male in line turns female. This is a whole colony from the same location. I made the bottom flat so it stands up. Astoria Fm., Miocene Period, about 14-23 MYA

$6.00

YES
Fossil 35 Newport, OR 2" wide Katherinella angustifrons clam, Astoria Fm., Miocene Period, about 14-23 MYA. 1 Cent WITH $25 PURCHASE from the polished rocks, fossils, and cabochons pages only. Please order only one 1 cent piece per order.

1 Cent!

YES
Fossil 36 Newport, OR 2" wide, possibly a Calicantharus snail. Did I mention that I'm not good at dentifying snalis? Astoria Fm., Miocene Period, about 14-23 MYA.

$5.00

YES
Fossil 37 Morocco 4-1/4" Mammites ammonite. You see these cut in half and polished at just about any rock shop on the planet, but you may never see a whole specimen. Late Cretaceous Period, 94.3 to 89.3 MYA.

$12.00

YES
Fossil 38 Coal Creek, WA 2" oysters, they are very difficult to identify so I don't know the species. Cowlitz Fm., Miocene Period, about 14-23 MYA. 1 Cent WITH $25 PURCHASE from the polished rocks, fossils, and cabochons pages only. Please order only one 1 cent piece per order.

1 Cent!

Fossil 40 Beverly Beach, OR 2 3/4" Cancellaria oregonensis (?) snail. This is the only one of these that I have collected. Astoria Fm., Miocene Period, about 14-23 MYA
$7.00
