Bone Valley Box Fossil Adventure Box

*(Whether you choose to open everything up all at once or space it out over a week like a regular advent calendar is up to you!)

For those unfamiliar, the Bone Valley Formation (or member) is a series of fossil-rich deposits found in central Florida’s “phosphate district.” These deposits are internationally renowned for the quality and especially color of fossils they produce, with Bone Valley shark teeth in particular being famed for their creamy white, tan, or light gray roots and uniquely colored crowns in various shades of blue, green, yellow, white, tan, and orange. Though much of this region was once open to fossil hunters, access has been severely restricted over the last several decades, drastically reducing the supply of these amazing teeth and making them more sought after than ever by collectors the world over.
This is your chance to own some of the most limited, sought after shark teeth in the world!

Fossil Advent(ure) Box
$200.00Add to cart Christmas & The HolidaysWouldn’t it be cool if someone took your traditional, 25 day advent calendar, loaded it up with killer fossils, and stripped away the overt Christmas theme to make it appropriate for year round enjoyment?
Yeah, we thought so too. So that’s exactly what we did. (Updated pictures coming soon, the current ones are from the Christmas edition.)
Introducing the Code Black Fossils Advent(ure) Box: an advent calendar style* fossil mystery box that will take you or your loved ones on 25 different trips (no duplicates, and with a big – some might even say MEGA! 🦈😉 – hidden surprise underneath day 24 – scroll to the bottom of this description to see everything that’s included!) through Florida’s rugged and wild past as you discover REAL fossils from REAL animals that lived from 10,000 to over 20 MILLION years ago.
*(Whether you choose to open everything up all at once, over the course of a few days, or one box per day like a regular advent calendar is entirely up to you!)
Each daily fossil(s) comes with a super detailed info card tucked away neatly into that day’s box. In addition, every Advent(ure) Box comes with a booklet that welcomes you to your fossil adventure, goes over the hows, whats, wheres, and whys of the Florida fossil hunting scene, shows a couple maps of Florida’s ancient coastlines to help you visualize what conditions were like all those years ago, offers up a shark tooth ID guide to be used in this and future fossil hunting adventures, and more!
These are a real treat and are a true labor of love. No detail has been overlooked – from hand clipping the corners of every single insert one at a time, to the day to day flow of the Advent(ure) Box itself, with numerous deep dives and/or callbacks to previous day’s lessons (take days two and three, for example, where we compare two of the world’s most ubiquitous herbivores and do a deep dive on the differences between their parent groups, the Artiodactyls and Perissodactyls).
This is a gift that is sure to be cherished and talked about for YEARS to come, and is perfect for all age groups, from kids to adults.
(If 25 days/items is too big of a commitment…Well, don’t worry – we have a whole series of 7 item Advent(ure) Boxes for you to choose from! You can take a dip in Florida’s ancient seas with our Shark Attack Pack, trek through its rugged Ice Age prairies and forests with our Pleistocene Pack, and visit one of the world’s most famous fossils sites with our Bone Valley Box.)
