Ha yeah they do! I just did a bit of research on them, think they are sea urchin echinoids, about 20 million years old!

Those things are sea potatoes! We still find fresh ones on the beach in northern Tassie. Related to starfish and sea urchins.

Found this the other day out bush walking with the kids.
The area had a few fossils, but all were water worn as they are in an old creek bed.

[Danny13]

Nice trilobite example ?

Yeah Danny just a borrowed pic to show the outlines of what my fossil could of looked like if it wern't in an old creek bed. The creek only flows in heavy rains but obviously enough to round off the edges of the fossil.

Found some fossil seashells in my childhood collection recently including one Opalised cockle from coober pedy with some nice colours in it.
