Found this going through the reject pile and it has a very flat rooth\ on the top that it can stand up. It is different from any tooth I have seen so I dont know if it is pathologic or a normal type of tooth?

It look's like a Squalus serriculus tooth to me. If that is the case, then it should have a flat root.

I would say it's an angel shark, Squatina subserrata.

Thank you for the help! Are they common at Aurora?

Elasmo.com states that they are somewhat common, particularly in the lower Yorktown Formation. Also, that is how they look, yours is not deformed.
