I still see a clam steinkern. There is a small snail steinkern at the base of the clam also. (visible in picture 3 and 5.)

I suppose it’s possible, the “clam” doesn’t look regular enough to be biological to me especially taking picture 2 into consideration.

*then again looking at picture 4 and 5 I definitely see a clam... I’m confused lol

A steinkern is a cast of the inside of the shell. Picture 2 is the hinge side or back of the inside of the shell.

Thankfully I do know what a steinkern is, the shape of the hinge is much more irregular/asymmetrical than I’m used to seeing. That said, you’ve convinced me haha!
