Best items to sell for profit in Animal Crossing New Horizons
Players can get easy money in Animal Crossing: New Horizons by selling these items.
There are over 70 fossils for players to find in Animal Crossing: New Horizonsbut only a few appear per day, so it may take some time for players to complete the museum's fossil exhibit on their island. This guide gives players information about the fossils they find in New horizonsincluding how much they are worth.
How to Complete the Fossil Collection in Animal Crossing: New Horizons
Every day that players log in Animal Crossing: New Horizonsfour fossils will spawn underground. Once players have access to a shovel, they will be able to search for these hidden treasures, allowing them to begin their journey by helping Blathers complete the fossil exhibit at the museum.
If players can't find all the fossils spawning on a given day, they don't have to worry too much, as up to six fossils can be buried on the island at once. So as long as players find two of the fossils, they can still look for the other two the next day, along with the four new fossils that will spawn.
total, there are 73 different fossils that players must dig up, assess and donate to the museum. If they never got a repeat fossil, it would take them 19 days to complete the fossil collection. However, it is almost impossible, as players are almost guaranteed to find some recurring fossils when they try to do so.
Players who want to speed up the process of obtaining all fossils can also buy Nook Miles tickets and visit mystery islands, as there is a small chance that a fossil will be buried on an island.
