Fossil ID?- Cape May, NJ

Hello Everyone! I go to cape may every year and for the past 3 years I’ve been obsessed with Rockhounding and looking for fossils on the beach. This year, I brought home a ton of stuff and most is still sitting in a duffel bag. I took some pictures of some that stood out to me through my rudimentary sort.  I understand the pictures aren’t the best, and I can upload some clearer, better lit pictures (with something to show scale) tonight when I get home. Just wondering, first, if anyone spots anything interesting out of these pictures that I took. I have these separated into 4 groups (referenced as: red- front & back, blue-front & back, green, and orange) that I’ve attached here. I also have them uploaded to Imgur with closeups/different angles of some particular ones, that I’ll link as well.

 

I apologize for the lighting. Just curious if I have anything cool in these photos and whether any would be worth photographing up close, in better light, and with more angles. 


Location
All of these were found last week, in Cape May, New Jersey (USA). All taken from the beach on the bay side (North Cape May Beach) right off of Town Bank Rd.  There was a bit of a storm and I believe I grabbed up all of these right after it cleared up.

I see paleozoic tabulate and rugose corals in the first and second picture.
