Racheld1 Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 I was looking through my beach finds and I have a small, curious piece. Can anyone ID it for me? Not sure if it's a fossil or an imprint of something. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Plax Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 looks like a ray denticle to me but wait for someone to opine that isn't just guessing as I am. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
