I didn't get any firm id on following tooth. Although worn, there are still spots of enamel, and it may have 2 worn down cutting edges.

I'm assuming mosasaur. Any other opinions?

Looks like a pretty worn Mosasaur tooth to me as well.

 

edit: @brad hinkelman I don't know the varieties of mosasaur you have up there but the facets on the tooth may lend themselves to determine a more precise identity

Agreed with Mosasaur. Doesn’t really look like a croc tooth, isn’t fat enough. Nice find!

Mosasaurus conodon, me thinks.

That's a good sized tooth. Now all you need is the skeleton. :D 

I wish :)
