It appears to be a distal humerus or similar bone, but without geochronology info it’s difficult to tell of what.

looks too weathered too distinguish species

Hey @dyon-hunting ! if you upload a few more photos of the specimen from different angles that would help greatly. Also, providing the town or county would help with the geochronology and thus aid in narrowing down an ID.

What is it? from the myFOSSIL app 1 day, 9 hours ago1 day, 9 hours ago1 day, 9 hours agoI found this along the beach of the Delaware Bay off the New Jersey coast. It’s unlike any shark tooth I’ve found and I’m wondering if it’s just a tooth shaped rock. Can anyone help point me in the right direction? Thanks!

@bill-heim could help.

it may be rock but I’ll wait for @bill-heim thoughts

is this what you found inside? First thought is flint but looks too clayey. maybe closer photos with scale might be able to narrow down an Id.

Partial bone? I found something else similar to this a while ago, except it was grey and the bump was much less prominent. I’m curious to see what this is, so I’m going to call on @daniel-park
