I found this fossil in Switzerland when I was younger, and I’ve always wondered what it is. I found it in a random rock pile. If someone could please help that would be great!

Was down at Big Brook NJ today and came across this specimen. Looking for some help in identifying what I actually have. Is it a rock or a fossil. If the latter is it a tooth?
