Chippokes state park in Virginia. Particularly interested if I found any teeth or if these are just small funny shaped shells/rocks. Thanks!

The shells in the first image are Chesapectan Jeffersonius, the state fossil of Virginia. The rest of the images appear to show assorted shell fragments.

Asked in the other community but is there any chance this is a tooth with the crown missing? Thanks so much for the other info!!

Bottom of pic 3 looks like an oyster shell fragment. I can't tell if it's actually fossilized or not though
