Cow Bone?

Found in the low tide in the mud, near the Rappahannock river. Pictures were undecipherable so I've taken new ones. Do let me know if higher resolution pictures are needed.

Hi, thanks for your help. It's clearly a proximal radius, and probably from a horse. It's a bit bigger than yours, about 90 mm across the joint face (I guess before cars, horses came in many models!)

Interesting with lots of holes (blood vessels, nerve bundles?) near the joint face. Heavy with nice color and fibrous patterns. Will make a nice paperweight.
