Bone found in Holland on the beach

It does look more like a concretion to me than bone, but as @jpc said, the pics are a little out of focus. Maybe you could take a few more? If you can get the piece in focus you can always crop out the background.

Now that's definitely bone!

I'd say limb bone of some kind of mammal; but let's wait for more specific IDs from other members :)

Looks like a femur. Probably something not real large, 13 cm, I would think, would be maybe smaller dog sized. Maybe like a badger?

Yes the first piece is a stone.

The second is a nice mammal bone.
