I only realized how rare this dinosaur age fossil was after prepping it

I thought I had found a section of plesiosaurus rib - not an uncommon find - but while prepping it I saw it had weird fluting along the sides. I did a bit of googling and it appears to be something a bit more rare!
Looks like it is the rostrum (sword) from an ancient swordfish protosphyraena!
