Cybirr Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 Sadly, no context/location to provide. Was found in a loose bag of river stones. Appears lower portion was longer but fractured/flaked off. My son hopes it's a dinosaur's tooth. Thank you, Cybirr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PFOOLEY Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 Great photos! Unfortunately, it is not a tooth. 1 "I am glad I shall never be young without wild country to be young in.

Fossildude19 Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 Welcome to the Forum. Unfortunately, it is merely a suggetively shaped rock, as the others have noted. There is no enamel present on the "blade", and the "root" area doesn't look like bone at all. Keep looking, though.
