Fossils of sea lilies can be found in rivers in England, and they were once believed to be fairy coins. They are also called "star stones" and are said to bring victory over enemies.

@globalmuseum I thought it was salt liquorice at first 😃
Are they foud stacked like that or ?
@globalmuseum
I always wonder what people 500 or 1000 years ago though of these things. They must have seemed so magical. Especially if taken to an area where there was nothing like that.
@globalmuseum whoa, star stones, so cool!

These fossils look like Xmas ornaments.
@globalmuseum in my hometown they're called Saint Vincent stars and they used to be set in jewelry. Here are examples: https://musee-gassendi.infraweb.dignelesbains.fr/en/saint-vincent-jewellery/
@globalmuseum you cannot just drop a fact like that without giving me a full on fantasy story 😂
