I found this piece of wood (?) on Emerald Isle Beach in North Carolina yesterday and thought it was super interesting! It is black, layered, and has some sparkles. Could anyone identify it? I wondered if it was coal because of the sparkles but would coal be layered like that? I attached a picture with flash on to make the sparkles even more obvious. It’s about two inches long.

Hi! I found these cool shells on Emerald Isle Beach in North Carolina yesterday and was wondering if anyone could help identify them. 1) Orange shell - this one is a super cool shape and also has some rocks trapped inside which is pretty interesting! 2) Purple/white - is this coral or just a cool rock? 3) Brown shell - also another cool shape (although it’s probably just broken) and the layering/colors are super pretty Thanks!

I was looking for shark teeth on Emerald Isle Beach in North Carolina yesterday and pocketed these finds… when I got home and looked closer I realized they were probably just interesting shells due to the layering. Could anyone figure out what kind of shell this is? Perhaps an oyster hinge? The big one is about an inch long and the small one half that size. I’ve got plenty of pictures attached. I’m totally new to this sort of thing. Thank you for your help!

Hello all! Sorry for the not-so-great photos here. My phone camera is... kind of a fossil. I found this mystery fossil on the beach in North Carolina, USA, somewhere near Emerald Isle if I'm recalling correctly. My best guess is that it's a periotic bone from a dolphin, porpoise, or something of the like, but it doesn't totally match up with images I've seen. I've also considered that it could be a ballast bone, but again, hard to confirm via Google search. Any thoughts would be appreciated!
