I found this vertebra fossil in North Carolina. I understand that vertebrae can be hard to identify, but if anyone can help me out, I greatly appreciate it!

Fossil whale vertebra is about all you can say; tough to pin down to genus or species;  general locality info would be good as would info on geologic formation.  If it was found near the coast , could be either Miocene or Pliocene in age;
