Here are a couple more I picked out of the Arkona mud. I put my guesses at the bottom but would like to see what you guys think. #1 These range from 5-10 mm The shape is roughly a 3 sided pyramid with 120/30/30 degree angles Some are pyritized but the others have a very faint lateral ridge pattern #2 My guess: #1 - Conulariid #2 - Fragment of a Devonaster arm Edit: adding one I forgot #3
