Hello, as part of a great hunt at Seatown on the jurassic coast I found this vertebra covered in pyrite, my first thought is plesiosaur due to the size of it. However the upper surface looks unusual to other plesiosaur verts Ive seen, any thoughts?

So these are the before and after of the bone fragment prep process. This material was found at Aust Cliff in the U.K it's from the Triassic. I'd love to get your opinions on what you think it could be, given that it's only a fragment it will be hard to tell. I've not left it in the sun before you ask haha that was just to take a clear picture, don't want it cracking. Thanks guys. I think ichthyosaur/plesiosaur bone fragment as these are some of the most common bones found from there. Plenty of coprolite and micro fossils visible here as well including some teeth. I prepped this myself over the course of an hour, the matrix is nice and soft and easy to get through
