Mystery Fossil

Data:  Hi,

I found u’r proposition on the internet ; i found this in martinica, in the sand, in the sea…It is a fossil (density, weight), but i don’t know what it could be ; i first thought to a tooth of shark, but in fact i think it is not now (the base of the « tooth » is very regular, and hasn’t got the form of what a root tooth is supposed to be or to become).

Then i thought to an outgrowth of Strombus gigas’s shell ? What do u think of my idea ?

Thxs in advance for answering me if you can.
