Anyone got a high res version? This is Exhibit 1 from the Comey indictment. If the pic is from North Carolina coast, the 8 looks like mostly Dinocardium robusta, the giant Atlantic cockle. The 6 probably the same but stained by anoxic sediment. The 4+7 look like a mix of Crassostrea virginica (Eastern oyster) and Geukensia demissa (Eastern ribbed mussel). Maybe also some ponderous ark, Noetia ponderosa and maybe also a Glycymeris (bittersweet clam) in the 8 #clamFacts

@dantheclamman @tsturm Can we have one of the Fedi geologists give us an opinion on the type of sand in that picture? Also, what typeface is that? 😁

@dantheclamman If we all just make the same message as Comey out of found objects and posts pictures of it on internet forums, would that help?
