According to Pat Holroyd of the Museum of Paleontology, UC Berkeley, this is likely a fossilized ear bone of a baleen whale, 5-20 million years old.

Fossil hunting along I-64 in West Virginia. The locality includes many plant fossils and some marine fossils. The latter included a few crinoid ossicles with a small pointy tooth.
Just one of my fossils, an Ammonite. Zoomed out while exposing, which gave a fairly nice–almost galaxy like, with the Fibonacci spiral–effect I thought.
Tidied up and cropped a little in photoshop, but didn't do much to it.
Ein Fossil (lateinisch fossilis „ausgegraben“) ist jedes Zeugnis vergangenen Lebens der Erdgeschichte, das älter als 10.000 Jahre ist und sich somit einem geologischen Zeitalter vor dem Beginn des Holozäns zuordnen lässt. Derartige erdgeschichtliche Dokumente können sowohl körperliche Überreste von Lebewesen (Körperfossilien) sein als auch Zeugnisse ihrer Aktivität (Spurenfossilien). Zum Beispiel werden auch versteinerte Trittsiegel und Exkremente (Koprolithe) zu den Fossilien gezählt. Die Erforschung der Fossilien erfolgt in erster Linie durch die Paläontologie.
Der Begriff „Versteinerung“ oder veraltet „Petrefakt“ (lateinisch petra Stein, factum „gemacht“) ist nicht gleichbedeutend, denn nicht jedes Fossil ist mineralisiert und liegt somit als eine Versteinerung vor.
Die Entstehung von Fossilien nennt man Fossilisation. Aufgrund besonderer Umstände zerfällt der Körper mancher Lebewesen nach ihrem Tod nicht vollständig, sondern Bestandteile, Form oder Struktur bleiben erhalten.

Fossil fern parts from Russellville AR where I go to college studying geology. This is a piece of shale that I found right above the coal deposits at this certain location just north of Russellville. These are highly carbonized remains as some still have great detail, a few of the remains even had pieces of the original plant still attached! These were around about 345 million years ago.

The public has mixed reactions as fossil-fuelled ( i.e. climate-changing), motor vehicles parade on the streets of Ponta Delgada, in the Azores. The following day, on the 25th of May, the town centre was shut down to motorised traffic, which resulted in lower levels of noise and air pollution, and increased levels of community spirit, with the local population decorating the streets with flowers for the Feast of Senhor Santo Cristo dos Milagres.

Fossil Flower (unknown species) preserved in the Green River Formation. Flowers are very rare in the fossil record. The taxonomy of fossil flowers is highly uncertain. Detailed identication is usually impossible because the fragile parts necessary to make an ID do not survive burial and fossilization. The Green River Formation is a laminated limestone precipitated from calcium-rich waters. The limestone is interbedded with many thin layers of volcanic ash and mudstone.
