It looks like a piece of a "Venus Clam", a member of the molluscan family Veneridae.  Because it is only a piece, and because there are a number of similar species from different geographic areas, a more specific identification would necessitate knowing where it originally came from.  Do you have any idea?  Caribbean?  West Central American?  Eastern or Western United States?
