Awesome find. It looks very similar to one I found.  So I would say yes but I would have the experts give their inputs. Congrats!

Looks more like Xiphactinus. Could we get more views with it on a surface and not between fingers?

Some might, not sure actually haven’t looked to see if any have that hole.

Excellent finds! Always nice to see the "rarer oddities" outside shark teeth and belemnites. That's the stuff that really keeps you jazzed.
