There are several activities that become part of the players' daily routine Animal Crossing: New Horizonsand one of them is looking for fossils, trying to uncover new knowledge to give to Blathers, the island's expert on the matter.
The best items to sell for profit in Animal Crossing New Horizons
By selling these items, players can earn some easy money in Animal Crossing: New Horizons.
Players can find more than 70 fossils Animal Crossing: New Horizonsbut only a few appear per day, so it may take some time for players to complete the fossil museum display on their island. This guide gives players information about the fossils they find New Horizonsincluding what they are worth.
How to complete the fossil collection in Animal Crossing: New Horizons
Each day players log in Animal Crossing: New Horizonsfour fossils appear underground. Once players have access to the shovel, they will be able to search for these hidden treasures, allowing them to begin their journey to help Blathers complete the museum's fossil exhibit.
If players don't manage to find all the fossils that spawn on a given day, they don't have to worry too much, as up to six fossils can be buried on the island at the same time. So if players find two fossils, they can search for two more the next day, along with four new fossils that appear.
In total, there are 73 different fossils that players must dig up, assess and donate to the museum. If they never obtained a repeat fossil, it would take them 19 days to complete the fossil collection. However, this is almost impossible as players are almost certain to find a few recurring fossils if they try.
Players who want to speed up the process of getting all the fossils can also buy Nook Miles tickets and visit the mysterious islands, as there is a small chance that a fossil will be buried on the island.
