It does look very much like bone to me, but I'm no expert on that so I'll wait for them to make the call. 1 Mark. Fossil hunting is easy -- they don't run away when you shoot at them!

I hunt South Central Florida, specifically the Peace River Formation. These are rock boring clams: https://markgelbart.wordpress.com/2010/04/22/rock-boring-marine-invertebrates-can-make-holes-in-fossils/ The fossil most likely is dugong/manatee rib, broken but unidentifiable.
