lfailla Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 I'm posting both sides to see if that helps to identify. Let me know if you need anything else. Thanks! Laura Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lfailla Posted May 11, 2014 Author Share Posted May 11, 2014 I think I've figured it out - Enchodus sp. ( the sabre-toothed fish of the Cretaceous) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pliosaur Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Maybe a rock? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plax Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 a very worn phosphatic element, either bone or the root of a tooth? I don't see enchodus here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fossilized6s Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 It may be a cast fossil from a gastropod. But it's hard to tell from the pics. I don't see a tooth though. ~Charlie~ "There are those that look at things the way they are, and ask why.....i dream of things that never were, and ask why not?" ~RFK ->Get your Mosasaur print ->How to spot a fake Trilobite ->How to identify a CONCRETION from a DINOSAUR EGG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plax Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 it's very fragmentary, pic 2 shows what looks like bony structure, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fossilized6s Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 I've never hunted the 20 Mile Creek, but i know all of the cast fossils i find from gastropods from the Peace look similar. But this could also be Turtle dermal or a Turtle/Tortoise shell frag. Again, im not too sure what is found there. But given if it is "boney material" it wouldn't be a tooth. ~Charlie~ "There are those that look at things the way they are, and ask why.....i dream of things that never were, and ask why not?" ~RFK ->Get your Mosasaur print ->How to spot a fake Trilobite ->How to identify a CONCRETION from a DINOSAUR EGG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plax Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 bony structure as at the base of a tooth, enchodus is a good example but this doesn't look like one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
