It's the internal bone of a cuttlefish and we found the bones all over the beaches in Australia when we were there recently. A man was collecting them to feed to his caged canaries he had at home.

It is a flat bone from the cuttle fish. It is usually sort of like a spear point in shape and is smaller than a hand. It is used as a dietary suppliment for birds.
