Found at Purse park MD.  The white curly thing seems to be a worm or snail? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello,

Can you please provide us with some more close up pictures ? Its kinda hard to tell what they are from this distance ;)

Although these pieces appear to be gastropod steinkerns, and this one a shark tooth. But without more close up pictures, I cannot tell for sure.

Red what appears to be steinkerns, blue the tooth.

It might be a recent serpula worm tube, but a close up of the ends would help confirm or negate that. Could also be a water worn branch.

Gastropod steinkerns and shark teeth are both quite common there. Carbonized wood is also found there. I'd want to check the darker piece to the far right.

The ones circled in red look like turritella shell molds. Better close up pics should be able to answer all of the ids.
