Hi new to forum, just starting to try to collect sharks teeth and fossils in Charleston County, SC  -  found this item on the shore and im sure its not a fossil due to color but curious.. thanks for any help-  will hopefully have some real fossils or teeth in the future.

+1 for modern fish vertebra. 

They are not distinctive to genus or species, as far as I know.

@Harry Pristis has a great gallery with some nice shark pics.

These are examples of pics from his gallery. You can go to see what he has there.

It would be helpful to see a clearer pic of the vertebra it obviously isn’t a shark vert. 

 

Fossil pics seem to be best when taken in natural sunlight or bright light to help illuminate fine details and keep the color natural.
