Hello! 

 

This is was found in the Atlantic Ocean- about 25 miles off the coast of ocean city, Maryland.  IMG_0414.thumb.JPG.ee9dd6539640346a439183c9f69aa9ce.JPG

I agree. I'm not familiar with the region, but it looks to me like a Walrus (Odobenus rosmarus) tusk with some adjacent teeth.

Yup, Odobenus rosmarus! Nice specimen. Probably late Pleistocene.
