Rock Hunting for Fossils!

My grandfather used to work for San Diego’s Geo Society. 

A while back I was going through a cabinet in the garage and found this tin. When I opened it I found these fossils. 

Some of them I know the name of but maybe some of you may be able to help tell me what the others are. Anyway, enjoy. It sure was a great thing to find. 

#1

#2 Crinoids

They were animals that look like plants that lived around 500 million years ago in the Cambrian times. 

#3 A different angel

and closer. This is the fossil shown above. 

#4 Imprints of Crinoids

and some square shaped things...

#5 Unknown

It might be part of a shell.

  1. Gosh, you have your own fossils. All I can say is WOW. Great find and from your grandfather no less. I tried to write comments on each and every one of the pictures but Virily froze up every time so I gave up. Beautiful pictures of days and remains gone by forever…
