Found these three rocks in an outcropping of Niobrara Chalk in Southeast SD. I suspect they are sponges or coral of some kind. Pics 2&3 are both roughly the diameter of a penny, pic 1 is probably 20% larger. ID would be greatly appreciated!

It might help  to provide a close up photo of each. Your pictures show a nice table with a small rock on it!!
