You should check your specimens against the Pliensbachian ammonites shown on Google. They are quite worn, but there should be enough detail left for you to identify at least to Genus. They look wonderful
-
Been reading that the occurrence of ammonites, are rare at this site. So this was a great found and from what I’ve been inquiring, they might be Dayiceras.

Though very worn it looks like you may have a rib. There looks to be other pieces of bone surrounding your find. Awesome.
-
Really? I never would have imagined. There are some other, I guess rib bones, near this one. Could it be relatively recent or is there no way of knowing by a photo?
-
I believe those are proper fossils. If you touch these fossils they will probably feel cold. Even though they are stone, you are able to see the texture of the bone. It would be difficult to collect the fossil in “one” piece. Maybe a jacket of plaster of Paris could keep it together. I would like to advise leaving it in situ is you are not well…[Read more]
-
I’m going to leave them as is. I don’t have experience removing anything from the ground that isn’t just laying around. There is a new neighborhood on the way and I am afraid things like this will be lost. Can or should I notify anyone?

I believe you are right. They are beautiful specimens. I think you should compare your specimens with pictures of rugose and tabulate coral fossils on Google images. You are going to find most of your answers there.

@lynette-luff awesome!! Thank you so so much-I will continue my research!

-
You have a serious piece of bone fossil there. If it is a large specimen it could be almost any mammal. More detail is needed.
-
thank you for your input this piece is a little longer than a regular cigarette lighter and diameter is the size of a small pill bottle and it’s hollow all the way through and seems to be somewhat polished like natural polish real smooth texture

I checked images of whale ear bones on Google. The colour seems very light though. Your specimen may be younger?,
-
Yes!!! That’s one of my big problems with my conclusion, haha. The shape just completely throws me off…I’m gonna keep doing some research today on some more modern bones shaped like this! Thank you so much for the help I appreciate it so much.
-
Also- I just added another pic! I completely forgot to show the side with the black coloring- it definitely looks like some kind of fossilized skin right?

You might want to compare your fossil with images of jellyfish. It certainly is fascinating.
