Hello!

First post here, looking for an ID on this item. I found this on my recent trip to GMR, North Carolina. To my untrained eye it looks like it could be some type of herbivore tooth, but it could also very well be just a rock. Any help is appreciated!

 

I don’t have a metric ruler, so I had to use one with inches. Pictured is the front for length, on its side for width, on its back for reference, and then me holding the item at an angle to show more if it’s top features.

Sorry, not seeing a tooth here. 

Looks like a phosphate nodule to me.  :unsure: 

 

 

Cropped, contrasted, and brightened:

@Fossildude19 that’s okay! When I picked it up I wasn’t sure if it was really anything at all, but I figured I’d keep it and ask people who would know. 

 

Still had a good day at GMR none the less!
