Hi guys please help me identify this! Is it modern? I’m very new at this, should it be left at the beach? Found it in El Nido, Philippines. 
Do you guys know if it is uncommon/ common? 
 

It is quite heavy. 
 

many thanks

I'm no genius at identifications,so take the following with the proverbial grain of salt:

it MIGHT be Leptastea transversa.

Since it looks to have not yet undergone the effects of early diagenesis,it's not horribly old.
