I found this giant cone snail shell fossil in Jeddah Saudi Arabia which I believe is quaternary but I would like to make sure of that and the area I was searching in had different fossils than I usually find they where only bivalves and clams and very little coral could this be because this area was deeper water if so how deep thank you

My question is how does one tell when something is fossilized, or is a fossil? I know some things just look like they are "fossilized", but what about things like clams or shells? I found myself wondering this while watching one of Paleo Cris' videos. I can't see any difference between a modern shell and the shells he finds in Florida. Maybe it's a touch type of thing. Any information would be appreciated!
