Looking at Mammoth tusk fragments I believe that is what it is. Any thoughts from anyone?

Hi there! Can you give us a little context of where this comes from or if you know the age? This helps in the identification process. Right now I’m thinking either a tooth, stem or chert that is a pseudofossil (rock that looks like a fossil).
-
@mackenzie-smith – I think @jeanette-pirlo commented on the other image of this fossil but maybe I am mis-remembering…
-
@jbauer She did. I hadn’t scrolled down to that post yet so I didn’t see it and the locality information until after I had posted.

Several shot from other angles would be helpful – and perhaps a really clear closeup of this.

This looks similar to a horse tooth. But different . Uploading a few more pictures. Any clues to what it is. St. John’s River Jacksonville Fl. #fossil

Def looks like a mammoth tusk based on the concentric rings on the interior
-
Duh! I just saw this after posting my suggestion! Interesting!

From the angle of the picture it looks like a mouth plate from a porcupine fish.

These will be in a 3rd grade class in the fall. Could we get a ID so they can be labeled. Thanks! #fossil

The left tooth is an upper Great White (Charcharodon carcharias) tooth. It has a thin root and irregular serrations.
The right one looks like a lower tooth. Its probably a Carcharodon hastalis. Its an extinct type of white shark.

Found a marine fossil chart that ID this as Tilly bones. I believe their something else. #fossil
-
Where did you find these? Location can help narrow down the possibilities!
-
Florida north east coast.
-
@james-woods cool! @vperez can you chime in on these?
-
I think these are tilly bones. Tilly bones are a common name for hyperostotic bones in fish, which is a fancy way of saying an excessive bone growth. They look like fish dorsal spines with excessive growth. Unfortunately, I don’t know my fish well enough to say what kind.

This is a a closer pic. I’ll take a few more later in the week. I agree it’s from a fish. I seen one reference chart that called it a Tilley bone. #fossil

Have you checked Robin Brown’s ‘Florida Fossils’? It looks so familiar, but I can’t remember. Or send it along to Dr. Richard Hulbert at UF. He’s the vertebrate person for the museum.

Any ideal what this could be? #fossil

Looks like a worn horse tooth. Could you take a picture of the occlusal sides please?
-
I agree with jeanette.
-
From my view it looks like a puffer fish tooth.

Post a few pic of the little fossils a few weeks ago anyone know what they might be.

From far away they look like fish bones to me. Could you take and upload a picture of one of these so we can see it a little bit better please?
