Ok, the denticle "I think thats what it is, correct me if Im wrong" was found along with sand tiger, and mako, and sting ray teeth. What could it have come from? Also, what is the second fossil? It has serations along both sides, doesn't look like shark teeth I usually find. Could it be just a broken tooth? what could it have come from? Found in same area. Thanks. stuff 065.jpg stuff 062.jpg

The second piece looks alot like a dermal scute.. not saying it is..denticle is probably correct.
Here is a ray tail spike frag. For comparison.

These are small alligator scutes.

Yep, we have collected a bunch of those ourselves. Find them all the time.

On an interesting side note, I'm going to make a set of latex gloves based on your fingerprints. There is a bank nearby...

So if the police come around asking questions- run.

You should probably start running now. LOL.
