Pectenids

I found this pectenids in a box at my grandparent's home...For that, I can't know the region where they come from...

So my questions are:Are they fossils (I'm almost sure yes)?Can someone tell me their approximated age?

Regards,

Guguita

In my opinion they are recent finds from the beach. They look more like tumbled by the sea rather than deposited in sediment. All the Pectinids I found in the Miocene strata in Romania don't have that weathering sign, but some of them are colored like yours.
