Hello,
I am new here so if I make a mistake give me a heads up. I found this about a week ago. On the beach, in the ocean. Someone suggested, that it may be a fossilized tooth. They suspected, it was from the miocene epoch. They said it was from a three-toed horse. I know absolutely nothing about this. I would love for everyone to give me their suggestions or opinions. Thank you very much and here are the photos:

Defiantly a fossilized tooth.
I would say it's a camel tooth though.
I would take it to a University and have them give it a look.
That's a great find and in great shape.
Congrats
