Great finds!! That small mammal tooth appears to be that of a seal.

Just found some old photos of a tooth I found at the northern end of the cliffs that resembles yours. It was ID'ed by the head of the Calvert Marine Museum as a milk tooth of a seal. The root had been absorbed by the seal before it dropped out. Sorry I had nothing in the photo for scale. It measures 3/8" wide and 3/8" tall.

Boy am I getting tired of another fossil hunter finding another junky meg... once again, just throw it away in your garbage. Also, tell me your address and when do they pick up the garbage in your area? ;)

I was looking for a bottle opener at a friends house and found two of them in her kitchen junk drawer. Does that count? Both very big and very chipped.
