Found this a while back on a landsite I was wondering if its worth taking out of the rock or if its better to use it as a display piece. Along with if anyone has any idea of what it could be, I think its a whale ear-bone or a tortoise leg spur. It for sure would have that bone valley blue in any case.

Pulled this from roughly 3-4 feet deep in my backyard on the far west/nw edge of San Antonio. Found a rock bed as I was digging. Odd because until then the soil was actually soil…it was dark and was easy to shovel. I’ve dug holes all around my property and at many other spots around this area and I’ve always hit a very solid layer of limestone before even getting a foot deep. So 3 feet was noteworthy. And that was about 8 months ago. It took me that amount of time to uncover this one. It’s a hair shy of 2lbs4oz/ just over 1kg. Any thoughts on it?

Another bone I found in the Peace River, Fl yesterday. I appears to me to be a scapula /shoulder bone. I have looked at many so far and while I think the ones I have seen support my hypothesis I can’t find a good clear match. The specimen measures 97 mm long by 80 mm wide tapering to 18 mm. It is 23 mm thick tapering to 4 mm. Any input would be greatly appreciated, thanks!
