My sister found this at Mineral Wells the last time she was there. Anybody have any idea what it might be? It's very thin and plate like. Could it possibly be a crustacean shell?

What is this? Found on the beach in SoCal. Petrified, and worn from the waves and salt, but still really unique. Crustacean shell? Bone seems a bit of a stretch, given its shape.

Hello, I found this interesting piece of sandstone last may on a dirt road close to my house 20 miles south of the fall line in Macon county, western Georgia, United States. On the sandstone appears to be an impression of some kind of Crustacean or insect. The area I’m in is supposed to be covered by the providence sand, which dates back to 70-67 mya during the late Cretaceous. There is also some Paleocene sediments around my area too so I’m not sure what age it is exactly. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Hello, Here are a bunch of old collection fossils that have me stumped...almost no info on provenance so tricky, but I'm hoping I can get at least a fossil identity for them if possible. There are 13 in total, here goes: 1. Crustacean/brachiopod steinkern? 2. Crustacean? Brachiopod? 3. Is this a coral? 4. No clue...thought orthocone but seems too thin? 5. No clue 6. Thought some sort of echinoderm but almost looks six-sided? Reminds me of a construction nut used for screws. 7. Some sort of brachiopod? 8. This seems like a trilobite pygidium, appears to be on a white block of matrix? Any guesses as to specific ID? 9. These seem echinoderm. The one with the protrusion in the center might be an echinoid plate, the rest crinoid plates? 10. I'm guessing these are echinoid spines 11. Looks like some heteromorphic ammonite sections. The one on the right with a double row of tubercles might be Nostoceras or Didymoceras? 12. I'm pretty sure these are Conulariids but does the preservation inform the provenance or ID further? EDIT: one more: 13. Orthocone? Thanks!
