Beach finds

It seems a lot of people don’t think that there’s a lot to find at the outerbanks beaches.  If there’s shells there usually can be some fossils that can be found to.  All these have been found in the same stretch of beach that is in front of the same three or four houses for the past 10 years.  I usually go for one to two weeks a year and have stayed in the same home.  Some years I don’t find any but if there are shells you’ve got a good chance.

I dont know what most of those are, It seems like fish material.

The bone above the large item in the middle is a hand (flipper) or foot (tail) bone, probably from a cetacean. @Boesse will be able to identify further.

 

The other items that have similar shape are fish skull pieces.

You sure found a lot of sea robin plates lol, also I believe the bone could be a deer toe.
