@GPJohnston Lucky you! Yes, even the smaller parts of the shells can be lovely. I know a guy on the coast who found a piece about 2”x3” with a natural hole and he wears it like a talisman.

@RobinApple here’s the one I found, I keep it in my rec room with a couple pecten (big scallop) fossils, and a bunch of other shells.

@GPJohnston That’s a big piece, and with good smoothed edges. Nice!
