Tooth? #fossil
Hey @johnchristian-lecornu ! This appears to be a rock.
Thank you! Amateur here, hard to tell 🙂
Not a tooth, looks like a rock
the enamel on teeth tends to survive–you get a hard shiny surface on them, and if they are broken often you can see the layer of enamel over the interior. look at all the shark teeth posted here, that shine is common on many (most?) teeth from all manner of critters.
No worries @johnchristian-lecornu ! Take a look at our (@bill-heim , @corinne-daycross, and @matthew-gramling ) respective galleries to acclimate your eyes to different types of fossils and their characteristics.
