Vert From Austin Chalk / Eagle Ford Boundry N Texas

[wfrr]

Here is a vert that is not like any of the others I've found. It's 2 3/4 inches tall and rather spool like, but oval instead of round. It's not well preserved but does exhibit the grainy look I see in mosasaur verts. My 1st thought was plesiosaur but it does not really look like what I see in any of the pictures. Now I'm thinking croc? Your guesses are welcome.

Nice looking vert im interested to know the geology of your find , ive seen many plesiosaur verts from The Oxford Clay formation which is a Jurrasic marine sedimentary rock formation underlying much of southeast England.
