Looking for agates and spotted this bugger. Also yes I posted this early and there was something funny going on with the video! Anyways we gots some shells in that thing and I think a cephalopod (probably not), not 110% at all, regardless wicked cool find! Also added in a video of it in the black light!.

Sorry one person and had to flip the thing haha.

The internet has taught me that all of those rocks have crabs in them

Very cool. Where do you think a chephalopod, and what variety? And calcite, particularly aragonite is UV reactive (am geologist)

It was that rod on the back. I am just making guesses cause I found a pieces of some a while back and they looked like bullets. I’ll post

Good eye. Sounds like belemnites. And from what I can make out in video, quite possible in this as well. Also maybe bacculite, but those 1/

have sutures like ammonites and aren't quite as common depending on location.
