You must be hunting the same beach I am. I am findind them also. In fact the top picture
lower right looks almost identical. When we get together sometime we can compare.

I have found many of these pieces too (Florida). If it was silver it would be very heavy for its size. I believe that they are not silver. It is likely aluminum or some type of aluminum alloy.

Well I work at an aluminum smelting facility and it sure looks like raw aluminum scrap to me. Hard to tell from a picture. I figure that in past years aluminum producers probably got away with dumping their waste into the ocean.
