Out hunting Jurassic coast yesterday, found this nodule containing what looks like the underside of a skull, symmetrical on both sides apart from one side is worn, if it is I was thinking croc or possibly Plesiosaur but it looks fish like to me, either way there is a lot of bone in there, any suggestions ? Thanks, Alan.

Cross sections are often hard to identify. There does seem to be a lot of bone in this specimen. But I can't make heads or tails of it. I would suggest prepping it and then seeing what it could be.

Hi, the whole thing is pretty much bone, 12" x 8" so a good sized nodule... thanks
