Jim's first fossil seems to be a trochiform gastropod such as a
pleurotomariid, trochid, or xenophorid.  I can't tell anything about
the second.  The third set might be some sort of seed-any chance of
better resolution?  Are they uniformly ribbed all the way around and
circular in cross section, or do they show other features?

Juan's fossil, from Miami, is probably Pleistocene (less than 1.8
million).  It looks like the internal mold of a Strombus.
