Does anyone know what this is?

I found it whilst rock pooling. It looks like a stone at the broken ends (not wood) but the shape of it is just strange? Found in the UK, south coast

Weekend Finds in the Pacific Northwest

Found some really fun things! Lots of pottery - pics 2 and 3 are back and front. There’s sea glass including a piece from an old Coca Cola bottle, fun shells (including the front of a bottom valve of a jingle shell) and more 🙂

Coffin-shaped pottery and interesting pattern/texture rock or bone (Green Bay, WI)

Image search said second photo is potentially a turtle shell or fossil of turtle shell? Initially I thought it looked like bone.. I’m unsure.

Finds from a first timer today.

Decided yesterday to go and give beach combing a bash today with the kids. We really enjoyed it. My 10 year old asked to do it again so that’s a great start. These are my favourite wee bits I found. I gather red glass isn’t overly common and finding the pottery was a highlight. I’m in central Scotland.

Isle of Mull, Tobermory, Scotland

I have watched so many mudlarking and beachcombing videos that I used my opportunity yesterday to do some myself when I visited the Isle of Mull.

First I found the vulcanite bottle stopper, then what seems to be a guitar pick by Fender but what I saw then completely flabbergasted me.

I saw it peeking out the sand, mainly because of the oxidized copper. I couldn’t believe my luck.

Sadly the coin doesn’t have much left on it, but what I could make of it, it should be a 1/2 Penny George V which were made between 1911-36.

Today's finds from our local beach, UK

We usually find a lot more sea glass but the tide was quite high so didn't find too much, mainly found some cool shells and a stone with a crescent moon on it. The last slide was a rock with crystals inside but doesn't show up too well on camera

Abalone cleanup

Anyone know how to clean up this abalone and get rid of the growth while keeping the natural look and how to clean the inside?

Fond this piece in South Spain

Hi there. I found this piece in South Spain, in Cádiz. It is very heavy and dark but in the light, it looks brownish. Any idea what could it be?
