      Thank you for tagging me @smudge-smith ! Greetings @christy-olsen ! I concur the @smudge-smith that this is not a fossil. It does look like sandstone or a similar clastic rock that has been weathered into a unique by the current of the river. It does posses a pleasing aesthetic value, so I would at least keep it for that reason.

      If you want to find the age of the meg tooth or all of you’re shark teeth look at how old the formations are at the location you found them
