- Make sure to track of your donation
You may need to track your donation to narrow the down list of fossils that you still have to find. You can track your donation through the Nook Shopping catalog. However, the catalog will inform you what you have collected and not what you have donated. By keeping track of your donation, you will focus on finding the fossils that you have not found yet. - Dig as much as possible
At the beginning of every new day in Animal Crossing that officially starts at 5 a.m., a new bunch of fossils will be available around your island. Every day, there will be four fossils that can be found. Sure, if you want to get more fossils, make sure to dig daily as much as possible. - Try to check the Mystery Island
To collect fossils and any resources in Animal Crossing, Mystery Islands are a great destination to visit. Generally, the Mystery Island will provide rare resources that may be hard to find. Make sure to bring a shovel when visiting a Mystery Island and keep your eyes to spot little stars on the ground. - Search obstructed areas
To find the fossils faster, make sure to search for them in specific areas. You may need to look for the fossils in the areas with hundreds of pieces of furniture which may hide the star. As a clue, the fossils will appear on even the smallest patch of grass and they may appear on dirt and sand paths.
- Make sure to track of your donation
Well, those are some tips and tricks that you can do to get more fossils and sell them to Timmy and Tommy at Nook’s Cranny as quickly as possible.
How to Trade Fossils with Your Friends?
To speed up completing the Museum’s fossil section, you may need to trade the fossils. You definitely can trade the fossils that you have found with your friends, instead of selling duplicate fossils that you have donated.
