Looks like a hollowed-out concretion to me :)

If you're a fossil nut from Palos Verdes, San Pedro, Redondo Beach, or Torrance, feel free to shoot me a PM!

Thanks! I’m so excited I found this site! 

And I kinda figured it wasn’t a fossil, especially since it was so different than any fossil I’ve found in the area...Still cool though.

Could you give your opinion of these? I know they’re aren’t fossils, but I’m so curious! Originally I thought they were the same type just different shades of green but now I’m not so sure. I’ve tried finding similar stuff online but I’m obviously not looking up the right thing. Serpentine was the closest thing I found...They are beautiful though!

There are many rocks that will have green color.

Some of the pieces You have look like jasper, opalite and maybe some epidote.

Do not see any that looks like serpentine, but there could be some in there.

You should do hardness test to see what they are.
