I found an arrowhead on Topsail beach today. I was
stoked.

The coal could very well be anthracite . You have a few blockade-runners in the area wrecked that would have carried this for fuel when needing the best for the last of the run.

As always, your finds make me incredibly jealous. Of course, when I muster up some finances, I’m going to go island hopping, complete with amazing photos, just to get back at you.

Nice collection. I’ve found that in some places the fossils are much easier to find than in others. I was down in Key West last year, and the gravel they use in the parking lots is entirely made up of coral fossils.

Happened to come across your pictures! Love them! I live at Topsail Beach and enjoy fossil hunting as well- what a satisfying hobby!
