PODIGGER Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 Looking for help with ID on these two finds from the Peace River, FL. Closest I could come to an ID on #1 is an Echinoid. On #2 I am thinking it could be a giant tortoise leg spur? Any input would be appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Dente Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 The first one looks like a steinkern of an urchin, maybe Cidaris. Not sure about the second one. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PODIGGER Posted June 3, 2019 Author Share Posted June 3, 2019 A close up look at the specimen does confirm that the interior appears to be filled with sand. Thanks for the help SailingAlongToo and Al Dente. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
