Hey new to this site my buddy recommend I post my finds I can't ID here and the members here are knowledgeable. Anyway I found these in a creek in north Louisiana known for some pretty incredible fossile sites. I think the round ball shaped fossile looks like coral maybe? The second pointy object has no enamel so I know it's not a tooth but possibly some form of sea shell? Anyone have some insite?

I noticed this is your very first post - so while you are waiting for a member reply - Welcome Aboard! Take a look at Sub-Forums: Louisiana for information (i.e., clubs, etc.) directly related to your state.

To me the round item looks like a turtle shell.

They do look like turtle shells but the design is on all sides and there are no holes in them like a shell has. I'd like to crack one open but I would be pretty pissed at myself if it ended up a rare fossil haha

The top picture looks like a piece of limestone. The bottom two are septarian nodules.

Love the shark teeth. I wish we had fossil sites like that around us.
