Went looking for one of these.

But only found this

And didn't have a few years to wait.

And then, found this

I'm THINKING it's a fossilized crab claw, since I could hear the surf from where I found it, but then, I'm not a Supreme Court justice, so.I don't really know.

Thoughts?

Hope you took the mud goat and I believe you are correct on the crab claw.

First impression was, it's a baby Predator from the movie of the same name

But I'd say it's a well preserved crab claw
