Hi All, I found this tooth sifting in one of the Cretaceous brooks in Monmouth Co., NJ. during a trip around November last year I wasn't sure what it was at first (initially thought talon possibly from something more recent), however after showing photos to a few local folk more familiar/knowledgeable with the fossils in this area (Thanks @frankh8147!), the consensus was, it's a very compressed Mosasaur tooth. Makes sense as Mosasaur teeth can be found here on occasion, and this tooth has several common features. However, I've had a couple individuals suggest theropod tooth when I initially shared it in a couple groups back in November. This was based on the compression of the root. I'm still leaning towards Mosasaur, but recently a different person brought up the theropod theory, so I thought why not throw it up here for opinion. Multiple photos, some redundant (have done a couple "photo shoots" with this one lol). If photos of any specific area would be beneficial, please let me know. Thanks in advance for your feedback/opinions! Truly appreciate the help.

My friend found this in Ramanessin Brook. I have found a Giant Beaver tooth before in Big Brook, but lost it. Can anyone let me know if this is another Giant Beaver Tooth.
