Found in NJ Cretaceous stream. Any suggestions? Looks like a partial vertebrae. Possibly Plesiosaur? Or even Dino?

I think that may be a shark vert. It has a cartilage look to it.

Thanks for the reply Rockwood. The age and weathering on the bone seemed very interesting. There's even some kind of patina on the face of it which seems unusual.

@erose that's what I thought with large vert. Made me think some reptile or plesiosaur type vibe. And seems very ancient from other bones found in the area. Thanks for your input.
