That's just realy cool to have laying around!
aparrently paleontologists can deduce some information from them about their "previous owner", so maybe you can contact someone in a nearby university who might be interrested to take a look at them, if he turns them into slaps while doing so you might be able to try and hone a razor on a dino turt :P
Coprolites are fossilized and are totally rock. They are usually uniformly dark in color with streaks running through them. They don't have the surface this one has. They often times polish them up and use them in jewelry.
a polished turt as jewlery, I wonder how my girlfriend would react :)
Who was it that could determine grit by the lick test?
