As I was going through my collection yesterday night, I came across this strange fossil, I don't remember where i found it, but it is from Florida, probably around Jacksonville or Steinhatchee. Sorry for the little amount of detail, it's around 1 inch long. Any thoughts?

Hello! My first post here after spending all afternoon searching the internet to no avail! I found this object this morning while walking at low tide on the very south end of Topsail Island. I’ve found tons of shark’s teeth over 45 years at Topsail but nothing like this. Thank you for your help!

My last few trips haven't been particularly exciting, and I am seeing more of my spots lost to construction or getting closed off. I did find what originally looked like part of a shark tooth until I got home and saw the barbs. But, it doesn't look like the typical ray barb that I find or see on the forum/online. It has enamel and the individual barbs don't go all the way to the tip. Also, the barbs point the opposite direction from a typical ray barb. Any ideas what it is from? Barb in question: Typical ray barb found the same day: Side by side comparison: Found in Ladson, SC in a creek with multiple epochs represented. Thanks!

From the album: TEETH & JAWS
Two dermal denticles (literally, "skin teeth") typically from the back and tail of Mio-Pliocene skates (Rajidae) and stingrays (Dasyatidae) from the Peace River in Florida. One is normal, the other is pathological. Dermal denticles have the same embryological origin as the teeth in the ray mouth. These are teeth that have migrated to the skin.

Hi, I just went on my first fossil hunting trip last weekend, and I am hooked! I’m trying to keep up the hype and go searching again soon. Attached are just a few of my finds. This seems like a great community, and I am so excited to learn more about great locations for finding fossils and identifying them.

Good morning all. I am still digging through my unidentified draw again and I came across this "tooth" or "barb", not sure. It looks like a tooth to me, maybe you can help. I don't have any information on this item as it was given to me many years ago by a friend.

Hi everyone! I found what I think it a tooth or barb in the Waipara river in New Zealand. It was embedded in some limestone which I think is 35 - 45myo (Amuri Limestone perhaps?) but I could be incorrect on the age. I think the point broke off during extraction. Length: 15mm Thickness: Very thin - just under 1mm I made a video of me finding it here: https://youtu.be/337y9ZU4h1s?t=207 Thanks!
