New Bay Mystery

[Kimi64]

Hi everyone. 

 

I went to Calvert Cliffs last week & found an interesting piece of bone. I have dozens of bone fragments from the Bay, but almost all of them are linear. This one is much more rounded. It is slightly bigger than a quarter. It might be too small to identify, but I thought it was worth sharing. It doesn't look turtle-y to me, but I guess that is a possibility.

looks like a coprolite to me.

Hi Plax,

 

Thanks, I had not considered that as a possibility as the only coprolite I have ever found before in the bay tend to be much smaller than this one. But now that you say that, it isn't as dense or heavy as most  bone would be, so I think you might be correct.

this was a guess. Make sure it's not a modern seed if it's not dense and heavy.

Thanks, but no it is definitely fossilized.
