While searching for crinoids a few days ago, I found two items which I thought were especially interesting. Can anyone identify them for me? (Mississippian/Tuscumbia Limestone)

Crinoid stems.

More specifically, some appear to be lumen casts, (interior of the crinoid stem) with some mineral accretion.
