Most of the fish "skulls" we find around here are attributed to the sea robin I believe : )

Every once in a great while it's not just a big rock down there!

Jeff,

This one doesn't have the ornamentation commonly found on the sea robin skulls, though.

Also the shape is different in both items.

Compare these:

The thread I linked to mentions they are from Porgies or Seabream.
