Thanks Tim and your very welcome =]

I had thought at first that it was from a shark like Asteracanthus so I was really pleased when the friend I prepped it for informed me it was actually a croc tooth and the first of this kind he had found at this location!

Thanks for the link, really interesting article!

Regards,
