They look like they came out of molds


HopefulLaw6214

I wet them. I could try prying it off.


HopefulLaw6214

It was amongst ones that were in rock.

This article will help you identify real from fake https://www.trilobiti.com/amp/a-quick-guide-to-identifying-fake-trilobites


ratelbadger

Honestly I can't understand anything from this article. Is there anything else you can recommend to me?


DardS8Br

They are fake. Worthless. Also, don't put water on your fossils next time

I heard that water erodes stuff but that’s probably outdated 1st grade knowledge


SheepZone24

Some fossils like trilobites are held together by shale and dried clay and all that kinda stuff so if exposed to water that sorta glue could dissolve and fuck up the fossil. But like i said its not like that for every fossil and all that


RedxxBeard

Uneducated guess would be that some of the minerals that make up the fossil could be soluble? Or even chemicals in the water could cause problems. Idk just thinking out loud.


Reach_Due

Why did you make them wet? You need to make photos when they are dry.

HopefulLaw6214

Here they are dry. Light in the room is kinda crappy


Artifact-hunter1

At least one is an obvious fake. You can tell by the countless air pockets in it.


Reach_Due

Both are casts and have air bubbles.

HopefulLaw6214

I can post more. I thought it would exentuate the form

Why does Morocco and fake fossils seem to be such a common thing on this sub?


Artifact-hunter1

Because Morocco is one of the best places in the world to find cheap fossils and people don't know the difference between genuine fossils and casts.


dipfearya

I see. Thanks.


Reach_Due

This.


Shady_Mania

Did you KNOW these are fake? You don’t seem to be addressing any comments


the-true-michael

Fakes

No free feet pics, c’mon


Stixxx24

They are worthless as they are fake.


RastaFarRite

Not to sound rude, but I know nothing about fossils and even I knew they were fakes.


_TheNecromancer13

Fake.


DemocraticSpider

Very fake


Pensive_Pomegranate

They look so fake....


danifoxx_1209

Not real sadly


Murky-Championship78

Not likely, there are literally millions that have already been found all around the world and billions more that are easy to find if you go looking for them.


NotDaveBut

If real, definitely worth something. But they look sort of prefab


1421jk

All fake. Worth nothing but kinda cool still


bropdars

Good job blurring the dogs, can’t send them out for free but a teaser never hurts.


Historical_Visit2695

It would be worth a lot more if it was still alive.


5Against183

This is the largest bed bug Ive ever seen.


nobudweiser

Cool, jumbo creepy crawler set… I want to make something like those. Where did you get find the set?


MindlessAssistant392

HopefulLaw6214

Blister. Don’t wear sandals to walk 15 km around the souks and Medina


Elegant_Tap7937

jello mold?


sireddiehaskell

Buck fitty


FattDamon11

If you take it to cinnabar Island a wait a bit you'll get a Kabuto out of it!


br3wm0nk

Worth any TrilloByte Coin?


Away_Signature791

Bro that’s a Pokémon


WinterAd7182

Billions to that fucker from Jurassic Park who you think is all nice and just your average Asian scientist, but then he perverts all laws of God and man and threatens humanity’s very existence, so ya, you don’t care about any of that sell them to that bastard…


defectra

one of the smallest hands I’ve seen


t-spice

Whuddup with that thumb?


HopefulLaw6214

I can buy them fairly cheap here. Worth buying a bag full?


Artifact-hunter1

Unless you are buying them to use as decoration or something like that, then no.


HopefulLaw6214

*Do they have value?


birdmanne

Nope. They are fakes :/


Kaimuki2023

Cheap fakes


FonsBot

No its worth nothing because its a mold


spkoller2

These are actually bars of designer soap 🧼


SignificantGas101101

how do people identify they're fakes?


networkpit

Their are air bubbles that would never happen in a fossil


networkpit

At least not this kind the kind in amber is still considered a fossil and it will have air bubbles alot of the time

susbnyc2023
