These are photos of some, what I assume are, teeth, that were in a specimen tray containing many well-known forms of shark teeth in an old collection.  None of the pieces were labelled or had a locale. These have me stumped. I've googled "leaf-shape, paddle-shaped, flat, weird, unusual, shark, and odd teeth" with no success. Can somebody please help? Maybe they aren't teeth at all?

Fossil hunting is easy -- they don't run away when you shoot at them!

Fish scale. Yes!

Alligator garfish scale. Yes!!

 

Thank you both. I would probably never have been able to figure this out!
