Shell that looks like a human finger - manDown1130 - 01-06-2014

Hey,

My mother found this seashell at North Myrtle Beach, SC.  She was scared to pick it up for a moment because it looked like the tip of someone's finger.  

Can you guys tell me what type of shell it may be, and also if it's something that collectors would be interested in? 

Thanks!

This only a fragment of a shell, and is quite beach worn (eroded and smoothed by the action of waves and sand), so it is not possible to say what kind of shell it might have come from.  In any case, no collector would be interested in it, in this condition.
