You may not be rich in real life, but you can certainly become rich in Animal Crossing: New Horizons. Thanks to the numerous ways you can acquire bells, there are plenty of methods for being a bellionaire overnight. One of those involves selling fossils, relics from the past that museum keeper Blathers wants to be displayed in his collection.
He might be said that this guide exists, but Blathers can shove it. We’ve got bells to make and we’re not going to let a little thing like scientific preservation stop us. Just have Blathers assess those fossils, then tell him “Hasta la vista, baby” as you rack up the dough.
Still, make sure to donate at least one of each fossil to the museum. That way Blathers can be sated and you won’t have to worry about giving the finger to history. Or don’t, I’m not your dad.
It should be noted that fossils are randomized, so you can’t specifically plan to sell certain ones. Anyway, if you’re looking to make a quick buck off of fossils, these are the ones you should be selling.
T-Rex
It should come as no surprise, but the T-Rex parts are some of the most lucrative in New Horizons. Each piece sells for at least 5,000 bells with skull bringing in a whopping 6,000. Just having all three together would generate 17,000 bells, which is a pretty nice chunk of change.
Triceratops
Another really popular dinosaur, the Triceratops parts go for quite a bit of bells. The head will net you 5,500, the torso 5,000, and the tail 4,500. It’s not at the same level as the T-Rex, but this is another good bet for racking up some quick money.
