Wow that is different- and I have no idea.

@Nimravis you think it might be 3 clams stacked on top of each other with the 3rd having a bad split? That's about the only thing I could guess from looking at it.

Not sure, if it is something like that I would say 2, that top most portion is not a Fossil and I am really leaning towards this concretion not having any fossils- let’s see if other chime in like @fiddlehead .

So its another of nature's jokes?  You pop it open and a crab is giving you the finger.  The ultimate ancient insult.

It's always happening to me.

Crustaceans especially can be quite crabby.

There's a story behind that. Perhaps I'll tell it to you someday over a spot of tea.

Mazoglossus??

I think what you have is an infilled burrow. I do not believe it is an animal.
