    Fossil

    My fossil knowledge is limited so I had to look that one up. I think you are more correct than my comment once I looked at pictures of those things.

    What is this mineral/stone

    I couldn't figure out how to add a comment to picture when I pasted it. So here is my SWAG-Magnetite. that's what the picture is. This has troubled me for awhile so I finally did some more looking but magnetite does have a lower SG than what you report.

    4.3 million pound hoard of silver coins

    The hoard was bought for 4.5 million pounds, not that it weighed 4.3 million pounds. If that were the case each coin would have weighed 1,720 pounds. Now that would be real pocket change. :)

    What kind of rock is this?

    Looks like the greenish is probably serpentine. Helps to know where you found it. Could also be nephrite, a form of jade. If you can scratch it with a knife it's most likely serpentine but that to can get hard enough to not scratch. But it could also be quartzite.

    Any ideas? And how?

    Iron stained quartz and the black is possibly hornblende.

    Help ID

    I thought of melted glass too until I looked up the temperature glass melts at. It takes temps of at least 2500 degrees F to melt glass. A fire won't melt glass. I'm curious if it isn't plastic. Can a knife scratch it?
