      I posted some snaps here when I first pulled them out of the ground of this batch. I haven’t polished the resin yet on most of the encased ones, but I’ll post a snap after my phone charges a little bit. I have some fossils that turned into clay, ancient wood fragments and belemnites in there too. All are from the Jurassic Coast in Dorset.

      I am saving these for teaching tools. They were collected with help from a good friend of mine that does palaeontology. My research is only Holocene lol.
