Rockwood Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 It looks like a fossil to me. A look at the end of the textured area might help, and the general area that it was found would be a helpful clue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brandy Cole Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 I agree that there are signs this might not be purely mineralogical due to the texture. More pictures from other angles might help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SawTooth Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 Looks like a piece of modern broken shell to me. If it was found at a beach it would be likely, anywhere else probably not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Literally found in a pasture in Sacramento. So our finds are pretty close. Thank you for the input. I really appreciate the feedback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
