Hi, @michael-gianakas – this looks like a horse tooth to me. I’ll tag @jeanette-pirlo in to confirm – she is also more familiar with the local rock units and may have some insight into why you found it there.
If you are interested in digging into the geologic context of your area you can zoom around on Macrostrat: https://macrostrat.org/map/#/z=2.8/x=-123.3927/y=52.3219/bedrock/lines/

HI @michael-gianakas this is certainly a horse tooth! looks to be in great shape! As for it being in your driveway, it sounds like you may have some other wonderful finds waiting for you. By the looks of it, the tooth seems to be from a fairly modern horse, so you may be looking at ice age material on your property. Keep an eye out for mammoth/mastodon material and maybe even some sloths! Good luck!
