I found this on a sand bar off the coast of Florida. I think it’s a clam fossil. However, I haven’t found any that look similar to it online. It’s very smooth and has multiple colors. Does anyone have any more information about this type of fossil. Thank you.

Looks like a steinkern of a bivalve, but someone else will have to ID it for you.

My favorite things about fossil hunting: getting out of my own head, getting into nature and, if I’m lucky, finding some cool souvenirs.

It does look like a fossil. And it does look like a clam or something closely related.

Looks like a cast of a cucullaea false ark clam.
