The large worn tooth fragment is most likely Megalodon or one of its relatives.

Nice finds....all kinds of things. I'll let the other teeth experts throw out ID's-still figuring out those myself. Regards, chris

I'm not sure but it looked interesting so I picked it up and thought I'd post it to see if anyone knew what it is... So curious!!!

You have yourself a nice collection site, kudos to you for picking this stuff up! I see you have found both some right and left handed whelks. Keep it up, and make sure to be the first to hit the beach after any storms, wind/tidal events. Kind regards,

Thank you Cole...I've been picking up "treasures" for about five or six years now but just now thought about trying to get my latest finds identified :) ... I made another post with a few teeth that I'm very curious about if you know anything about teeth???

Hi,

You found 2 species of recent sea urchins. The little and spherical ones are Arbacia punctulata and the flat ones seems to be Mellita tenuis.

If this is one day you must have quite a collection. I recently took some drift wood and fish net and turned mine into a hanging mobile. It's a fun way to store and display them.

That sounds like an awesome idea :) thank you...and yes our garage is overflowing as well as many places around the house and even in the shed lol... Getting ready to move to the desert in California so I'm hoping they have some awesome places to look for "treasures "ther too
