Is this anything? Possible arrowhead or tool?

Hello
I have grown up mostly hunting fossils and just recently became interested in Native Maerican artifacts. I found these two in the Tampa Bay Area. The first one is extremely sharp and looks like a tool possibly? The second I am pretty sure is just a broken piece of calcified limestone. New to this so looking to learn. Thanks. 08CEF744-F149-4399-8AB3-CFF52DD7C950.jpeg 7196C107-5100-4D1B-9D24-6A64DB68AEFD.jpeg

I don't see these being artifacts but, if you're hunting in the Tampa area you've got a really good chance of finding some outstanding points there. Keep looking. I've seen lots killer finds come the Six Mile Creek area.

Welcome to Treasurenet.

Pictures are out of focus, sorry, nothing in pictures shows signs of being worked by native Americans.

Fossil Agatized Coral was commonly used for making tools in the Tampa area.
Pictures aren't clear enough to determine if these were worked on.
Important factor would be site association where found.
Possible lithic scatter if from a manufacturing site.
More likely natural if found randomly.
