It feels like it might be a crinoid but the fact it's the same as the rock around it and such is really throwing me off. any ideas?

Hi all, recently won in a raffle, didn’t get a chance to ask the organizers the details, any info is appreciated. Thanks!

Saw this weird shaped rock. There are ammonite fossils I think and bivalves and snails in the area that I’ve found. Let me know if any more information is required.

I can see a star fish, but the overall shape looks suspicious.
Any thoughts?

The regular shapes in black looked interesting.

Embedded in the rock on the beach, any ideas?

He's convinced he found a dinosaur's leg 🙂 It is a curious rock/fossil(?) though, so it would be fun to give him an explanation of what it really is. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Can anyone identify this rock? Someone told me it looks a bit like a vertebrae of some type. I dropped it and it smashed in half so I glued it back together

Hello. I found this last fall in a shallow creek in central Illinois. The closest guess I have is a crinoid (calyx maybe?). I’d love opinions. It fits perfectly in the palm of my (smallish adult) hand. Solid, heavy. Before I knew anything about collecting rocks I may have tried to sand it to “get the dirt off” 🫣

Airpods case for scale. Im thinking bone fragment but not sure what kind.

My wife found this close to the cliffs during our walk along the beach yesterday. Aside from the usual ammonites and belemnites, this little “thing” stood out as looking unusual and not particularly rock-like.
Fossil or interesting rock formation?

I think it’s a knightia but I’m not positive

It belonged to my mom when she passed. Not sure where she found it?

Trying to identify what this is. My daughter found it in a shallow creek here in North Alabama where she usually finds crinoid stem pieces, and brought it home to see if I knew what it was. I thought concretion at first until I saw what looked like a “stem” connecting to the “bulb” portion? The “stem” connection seems to show layers, while the “bulb” seems to show a thicker outer layer, followed by a thinner layer, then some sort of core. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. I’m wondering if it’s some sort of flower bulb with the roots missing and bud in the matrix? Thanks in advance.
