I recommend screening sand at the surf line at Atlantic Beach, NC near
Morehead City. Shells seem to accumulate there under a thin layer of sand.
Interesting miniatures and some shark teeth come up. Pieces of the Trent
formation, a lower Miocene limestone, wash up with the tides and present
molds of mollusks.
