I am very glad to see an interest for my finding. My hobby is collecting local minerals, stones and fossils, and I was surprised when I found pearl shells.
I found them in Fru'ka gora mountain; where there was an ancient Pannonian sea.
I have a piece with a bigger pearl attached on a shell, about 1 cm. My knowledge is limited. According to the other fossils my shells are from miocene, but is it possible?
Please, help me to identify them.
Best regards
