My modest fossil collection is not accessible ( in boxes ) and most of it is not show worthy. But there are some that I would love to show off. So, I collected all my trays that might work to display them, Here is what I came up with!
Box 1 is a mixed assortment of fossils.
This is a mix of deciduous and coniferous leaves which I thought was good value for my money. Purchased at the museum of nature in Ottawa.
This one is fern leaves fossils that I got at the museum of nature in Ottawa.
This is a fossil of an unknown creature making tunnels in the sea bed floor. Found at Blue Beach in Nova Scotia ( the one place you are allowed to collect in the province! )
My sad trilobite collection. Most of these I got in purchased kits.
Hard to see, but these are tiny ostropods are from Blue Beach

The second box I got at a thrift store. It will hold my ammonite collection. Although ammonites are one of the most prolific fossils found, they are usually very beautiful, and make an impressive display.
This one I purchased at the museum of nature in Ottawa
These are ammonites that are polished, location unknown.
This ammonite came from a kit.
This fossil I purchased at the museum of nature, in Ottawa
These I purchased and although they are beautiful, I don't know where they came from.
