    I looks a nail head. Could you add photos of the side and rear? Thanks

      It looks like a piece of phosphate. Phosphate can take on unusual shapes and not have anything to do with fossils. This one is unusually symmetric and appears to ended up as a internal cast possibly of a fish skull or something else

      Is it heavy? This looks similar to some bones I’ve found on the beach.. it’d be rather light then

      @bill-heim might be able to help. Crocodilian? Cetacean? Or crab claw fragment?

      Some kind of bone, probably a leg bone

      Possibly another crocodile scute fragment.

      almost looks like a skull fragment near the orbit of the eye.

      I’m venturing a fragment of the parietal bones of a crocodilian. @bill-heim could provide more insight

      parietal bone seems to fit.

    I don’t think it’s a sea urchin. I believe I have a sea biscuit. Urchins don’t have the tiny holes on top.

      @jon-thele A sea biscuit, also known as a sand dollar, is a name for a group of flat, burrowing sea urchins.
