Well there does appear to be some enamal but this is a very worn beat up fragment. Impossible to tell what its from.

I like Trilo-butts and I cannot lie.

The second image certainly looks like the enamal on the backside of a shark tooth. If I had to guess I'd say you have a very worn section of a Megalodon tooth. Let's see what others say.

It is part of an extremely water worn and broken O. megalodon.

At first glance the curves on its edges make me think of a large worn whale ear bone, but it definitely does look like it has enamel.

Very worm meg, but still a pretty specimen indeed.

Happy hunting,
