Hey guys! I hardly know a thing about fossils and it would be great if someone could help me out. My family and I visited Chippoke State Park and found what appears to be either a fossil or just a shell trapped in sand. It’s about 3 and a half inches wide and long. Anything helps. Thanks!

Welcome to the Forum. :)

 

Unfortunately, this looks like a rock with mineral vein showing after differential weathering. 

 

Also, please be careful of picking things up in State Parks. Usually, that is against the law, unless otherwise stated. ;)
