Fossilized Shell Fragment – 2” x 2” – South Dakota Grasslands Find This fossilized shell fragment measures approximately 2” x 2” and features a portion of the original shell still naturally attached to the surrounding stone. The preserved shell detail and texture are clearly visible, making it a small but eye-catching piece. I found this specimen while exploring public grasslands in South Dakota, an area once covered by an ancient inland sea. It has been gently cleaned but is otherwise in completely natural condition — no repairs or enhancements. A great piece for fellow collectors, a classroom display, or anyone who appreciates holding a little bit of ancient history in their hands. Would make a great addition to a fossil collection, rock shelf, classroom display, or curiosity cabinet. Approx 3 oz #southdakota #fossil #shell
