These are assorted shark teeth from Calvert Cliffs, MD. These are a dime a dozen, or cheaper, in the surf zone of this area of the Chesapeake Bay (although the guy at the entrance of one park in the area is happily selling them for a buck apiece). If you go, stay away from the cliffs from which these fossils and others erode - they are unstable and could collapse. I recommend getting in the water when it's relatively clear and snorkeling the 1 - 2 foot trough within 10 feet of shore - for some reason these teeth accumulate there and they are visible due to their high contrast against the sand and shells.
