Fossildude19 Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 Sorry, these all look like ironstone concretions to me.

Cluros Posted December 24, 2016 Share Posted December 24, 2016 I would have to agree with Tim. Looks like common ironstone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FossilGuy1024 Posted December 24, 2016 Share Posted December 24, 2016 Your first picture looks like it could be an osteoderm (scute) of some sort. With the prominent ridge running across and the way the pattern disappears towards the bottom edge looks suspiciously like a croc scute. Shots of the side and back would help with Id.

Carl Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 That first one could also be a fragment of shell from the turtle Peritresius. But as FossilGuy1024 says, more clear views are needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abyssunder Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 Turtle plate fragment was my first thought, also.
