I have a fossil, which I found in my garden. It looks like this:
The three long sections are about the size of my first three fingers together. At first, I thought it was a fossilized foot of some sort, but it turned out to be the entire creature.
It is a trilobite and it is old. Think of something very old - it"s older than that. This thing is 400 million years old. I don"t know anything else that is as old as that. Actually, I found it five years ago, so it"s 400 million and five years old now. They have never been found in Portsmouth before.
I might bring him for a day out at an APAT tournament. He hasn"t seen much of the world outside my garden for the last 400 million and five years and loads of stuff has changed in that time. He could always earn his keep as a card protector.

Have you informed anyone of the find? Natural History museum for example?
I would and I"d certainly get it valued
Jon MW:
I"m working from memory but I think trilobyte fossils are very common.
That"s not to say that one in particularly good condition might be a bit more special - or that I"m just remembering wrongly :-\
SirPercival:
Personally I would keep it but it might be worth a buy-in or 2
