Curious about this tooth

schance · Apr 17, 2013

I found this tooth and arrowhead the other day on the beach in New Jersey. Any ideas what it is? I'm thinking maybe horse.
Also found these long cylinder objects made out of light stone or graphite on the beach. They are not old but I'm just curious if anyone knows what they could be.

The tooth is Horse i believe, the arrowhead is very nice, and the graphite cores are from old batteries.

Tooth looks like horse.

Real nice finds for a NJ beach.
I'll speculate horse also. Point looks pretty recently exposed.

Thanks for responding. I thought that it may be a horse tooth. I knew that the graphite cores were not old but had no idea what they were.

Thanks for the response. Was really happy to find that horse tooth. Usually have to travel out of state to find anything good. I imagine that the arrowhead was probably washed out of hiding during Hurricane Sandy. It really stirred things up around here.
