Large Fossil Great White Tooth


I hope you liked Clausen's report on the Fort Pierce collection that I posted yesterday as much as I did.  It should be especially helpful when researching local military finds of that period.  The button collection is really great.

I've seen  a pewter feather holder

6/27/12 Report - Debby Comes Ashore & Another Millions-Year-Old Find

One Treasure Coast Beach Yesterday Afternoon.



Tropical Storm Debby has been hard to predict.  Some models had her going West to Texas, others North, others East and even a few, Southeast.  It was really all over the map.

Some of the mystery is now over.  Debby hit land near Steinhatchee and is headed across Florida above Orlando and then out into the Atlantic.

I would guess that the Outer

6/22/12 Report - Thousand-Year-Old Find, Returned Ring and Conditions

Here is something I found on a beach. It is about an inch and a half, measuring left to right.



Do you know what it is?  It's not a mushroom.  I didn't know what it is, but one of my expert readers did. 



I'll post what he said below.

Written by the Treasureguide for the exclusive use of treasurebeachesreport.blogspot.com.







Typical beach Monday Morning.






It appears that most of the beaches along the Treasure Coast are pretty mushy right now.  Many are scalloped.  I saw a good number of shells, a good bit of sea glass, and some fossils in addition to metallic targets.  I didn't see any pottery or shipwreck wood

7/11/11 Report - Ice Age Treasure Coast Finds & Blaming Detectors

Fossilized Ice Age Antlers (Tine & Base in Matrix)I recently found the tine on the beach. I found the base sometime ago. I like the matrix.I am thinking of making the tine into a pendant.A lot of people think that if they aren't finding anything, or not what they want to find, that the reason is their detector. That is usually not the case. Most detectorists (those that I see anyway) have a

2/3/11 Report - Flat Seas, Porpoises, Fossil Sand Dollar, and More

Flat Sea and Fishing Boats Off South Hutchinson Island This Morning.Looks more like August than February. It seemed like the fishing boats were all heading south of Fort Pierce this morning.
