I have been spreading's and shaping some gravel on a road lately. This morning I noticed a few stray stones that needed to be raked away. Seeing that I had just roped down a load of brush over the rake, I decided to just pick the largest few by hand. This caught my eye as I reached for the first one. Am I crazy, or is this a piece of a mastodon tooth ?

Found in Jackson County Missouri (I didn't find it myself, but I can most likely get more info on location it was found.) I do believe it was found in a dirt road alley. Long dark grey and brown striations, that cannot be scratched with my nail. Then on one side in a few large chunks, an orange/brown (rust colored) residue, that can be scratched off. I thought my pictures were going to look much better than this. So I can get better pictures ASAP if need be. Let me know any other information I need to provide. Thank you for looking! Hope everyone is safe and healthy out there!
