This is a stienkern with no shell remaining, not identifiable.

I agree.. With no outer shell ornamentation it's pretty hard to narrow down an ID for a snail like this. Did it ever have shell and you ground it away, or was it missing when you found it?

I agree that it will be hard to pin down an exact ID, but someone that knows the formation may be able to give a few different options. 
 

Unfortunately, that isn’t me. Still, I’m a sucker for anything that spirals. Identifiable or not, it is cool little guy. :cool07:
