Found this while fossil hunting on the Potomac River (mostly miocene marine fauna) in Westmoreland County, Virginia. When I first picked it up I thought it was just a shark tooth with the root missing. When I got home and cleaned up my finds I realized it wasn't shark. It is about 5/8" long, tear drop shape in section, and has striations like a croc tooth, but since it is flat I don't think it is croc. Maybe some type of fish? Any thoughts?

I found this interesting bone fragment at Westmoreland State Park (Virginia) on the shores of the Potomac River. (Mostly Miocene marine fauna.) It seems to be broken on one end, but not the other. One side is concave while the other is convex. A friend thought it might possibly be a rostrum fragment? Any ideas what it could be? Thanks!

A friend found this bone on the shores of the Potomac River in Virginia... mostly miocene marine fauna. Closest we could find was a picture of an ocean sunfish beak from the Calvert cliffs.. but we are eager to hear what others might think? Thanks!
