Wow that looks interesting but I have no idea what it is.
Crinoid stem?
Trilobite??
Possible orthocone or crinoid.
trilobite, crinoid or ammonite
any of these suggestions except for trilobite are possible
If it helps: it’s a little longer than a BIC lighter. And the top widest part is a little bit wider than a quarter.
that does help. in the picture it looks as thick as an arm!
now it makes more sense
but as l said before, I don’t know whether it’s crinoid,orthocone or ammonite
On the last photo, you can see some small crinoids next to the large fossil. This leads me to believe that it’s a crinoid, but the troubling thing is that it is not straight, but pear shaped where it gets thicker, only a crinoid. Mabey it’s a sea scorpion? It’s out there, but it’s definitely not a triliobite because the line pattern is off, not an orthacone because it’s the wrong shape, and lined.
I can see crinoid pieces so probably just a whole stem
I’m guessing a eurypterid maybe?
It looks like a cephalopod, probably an ammonoid
Probably over time a crinoid has been bent somehow in foosilization or erosion. crinoid
I cleaned it up a tiny bit and added two new pictures
