I'm mostly curious of what kind of shark the tooth belonged to! Found it last weekend at Caspersen Beach in Venice, Florida. The biggest tooth I've found so far in 3 weeks of hunting.

Hopefully some of you can help identify the other items.

• Pictures 1-11 were all found on Caspersen Beach, Venice, Florida.

• Pictures 12-15 location found is unknown.

• Pictures 16-18 the fossil came from river-rock transported from an unknown location.

The potential bone in picture 5-7 has a concave surface, sort of like a ball joint.

Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks! :D

The shark tooth is a meg. The others are pretty worn so these are guesses but, 3 &4 could be turtle shell, 5,6,& 7 looks like a piece of leg bone. No guess on 8. 9 thru 11 could be a turtle foot pad. 12 & 13 dugong rib, and the rest also look like pieces of rib bone.
