Found this today, just a little under two inches tip to tip.  It's hollow inside. Canine tooth or what??

Hey Steve, It looks more like a claw than a tooth. Canine maybe.

Thanks guys, pig tusks did go through my mind as a possibility when I dug it.  Found a part of one other bone today so it was possibly dinner.  Funny, I dug it in the foundation that's above my railroad tressle back in the woods.  The tresstles name according to the Ma & Pa maintanance forman Harry Dixon who worked the railroad for at least 40 years was Hog(g)? Tresstle

I agree with the others, since it's hollow, it's a claw.  Interesting, though.

You are special for pointing that out

Did they actually have a portrait of her for that coin or is it a fantasy?
