A long shot, but worth asking about.

Good evening folks! I’ve had this specimen in my collection since April 2013 when I first visited Big Brook in New Jersey.
I have a separate fossil from the same trip that I am more thoroughly convinced is bone which is highly dense and has probable scavenging marks.

If it is a fossil then a more reasonable answer may be burrow cast. 
I may have slight delusions of grandeur with this piece, but I think it’s worth discussing!

I could be wrong but in my opinion it just looks like an ironstone concretion. These have fooled me more than once.
