Does anyone Know What This Is?? I found it today on a beach in Cumbria. I thought it was a shell at first but it looks a bit like a jaw as the two narrow bits look very fang like. Google Lens isn’t turning up anything useful. The 5p is for scale.

  1. Crab flap ? Look like the underneath part of the shell

  2. Ahh the old crabs arse. many a man have pondered, but only a few have ventured.

  3. I was looking at the picture thinking ‘I have definitely seen one of those many times before, but I can’t for the life of me think where?!’ Then I saw all the comments and thought ‘Of *course* it’s a crab’s arse!!’

  4. For all the doom and gloom that often surrounds our island at times, the responses to this post makes me proud that I live here.

  5. Personally, I’m leaning towards a five pence piece, but I’m not sure. No sod it I’ll go out on a limb – that’s a five pence piece.

  6. My first thought was maybe a Turtle Tail, but all the other comments seem to think it’s a Crab Coochie so 🤷🏻‍♂️
