Found this tooth on the beach in Northern Florida.  Have looked at about a million fossil teeth online, to try to determine what it is. 

Decided that I need to call in the experts.  Thanks in advance.

It appears to be a land mammal incisor.  These can be difficult to identify, particularly from Fernandina Beach which may produce Miocene fossils.

Thanks Harry - That was also my best guess - doesn't look much like deer or tapir or the usual suspects for here, but I suppose it could be the tooth of a juvenile animal ...
