McFaddin Beach, TX finds

New fossil hunter here! Recently went hunting at McFaddin Beach, TX with some out-of-state friends. McFaddin is a popular fossil hunting spot because it is not restricted and many projectile points have been found there. We found lots of interesting pieces (my friend found two herbivore teeth!) but, I'm not sure if any of my finds are good. The first pictures (with the larger pieces are what I'm most interested in. We also found lots of dark cylindrical pieces that I think could be coral (or antler fragments which are common on the beach). Finally, I found a fragment of what might be a projectile point (I know it's not a fossil, but maybe someone can help?). Any IDs would be appreciated.

 

Also keep in mind there is a crumbled asphalt road that runs along the beach, I tried to avoid those pieces, but some may have slipped through. Also, the fish bone at the top of one of the pictures is not fossilized, just a cool find.
