it might be scolymia coral, or another disc coral

Researching a different coral I learned about disc corals.

I found the Scolymia species which shares similar features to the white disc beads. Perhaps the beads are their skeletons.

If you look at photos of scolymia most of the examples are very brightly colored. Many of them are sold for aquariums.

I have not yet found white examples like the beads.
