Hi guys! I'm new here so i'm not really familiar with the way this works, but i sure want to try! On my last vacation, my boyfriend found me this fossil and i tried to look up what kind of fossil this is. Sadly, i couldn't find anything about it so i wanted to ask you guys! If you have any idea at all, feel free to comment it :) it would make me very happy! 

Thanks in advance :)

Very interesting.

To me it looks like a rather nice cross-section through a large serpulid worm tube.

I concur with @Tidgy's Dad. The fact that it starts with a tight spiral then unravels at the end strongly suggests to me a serpulid. If it had kept it's tight spiral, then that would be one of countless planispiral gastropods.

Welcome from Romania! :)

I agree with Adam. It could be half of a serpulid worm (or what remains from it). Very nice find!
