First time posting….so I apologize if I’m not following correct formatting.

 

Not sure if this is anything, but was found on Tybee Island. Can anyone help with identifying it? Thanks!

Hello Sesemelroth and welcome to the forum.

To me, this looks like a crown of a fossil tooth, more I cannot say. But surely someone with more information will be along shortly.

Nice find!

best Regards,

Cropped and brightened. It would be helpful to know the size of this find.

Same for age and geological context... I'm not familiar with Tybee Island in Georgia :Confused05:

About the width/size of a nickel. Thanks! Tybee Island/Jeckyl Island is in Georgia. The beaches are near Savannah.

As a directional statement,  I am thinking lower tapir incisor...

One of mine is in this thread...

A concern is the size,  I would  think a nickel would be too large.
