Good morning truse1934 and welcome. Can you give us a bit more details about what shells are you looking for? This being a lapidary (rocks) board we do encounter rocks with fossil shells in them but there are a variety of types.

Welcome to the forum. It would be helpful to know where you are located or can travel to, if you're doing your own hunting.

geology.com/gemstones/turritella/Turritella Agate / Elimia Agate: A close-up photo of a sawn surface of Turritella Agate showing numerous spiral-shaped snail shells. This type of view shows how the internal cavities of the shells and the voids between the shells have all been infilled with the translucent-to-transparent agate. This view is about two inches across.
