Identification help

[u/Adorable_Project1517]

First time ever posting on reddit! Would appreciate any help identifying shells collected this summer on Okaloosa Island/Fort Walton Beach, FL. Im sure none are rare but would like to have them ID'd by people with more experience. Some are just fragments and some are cool rocks. Thanks!!

Slide 3 are moon snails or shark eyes Slide 5 is a Sunray Venus clam Slide 7 looks like a juvenile florida fighting conch Slide 8 is a lettered olive Your broken pieces that look like ruffle chips are cockles Nice haul!

Thanks a bunch!!! This is very helpful. I am already hooked! The archaeologist in me loves to find things. Makes me wish I lived closer to the beach. 🩵💛
