This is a very unusual shark tooth fossil. It is a complete Carcharocles auriculatus tooth from the Eocene of North Africa. This shark was the first in the line of sharks that evolved into Carcharocles megalodon. This tooth has a very solid and substantial root. Both cusps of the tooth are intact and beautifully displayed. The serrations are clearly defined, and the very tip of the tooth shows just a little wear. The glossy enamel of the tooth is beautifully preserved and has gorgeous, natural coloration. Both sides of the tooth are quite attractive. This is a great specimen of this extremely rare shark tooth from Morocco.
This fossil was collected and obtained legally, and is also being sold legally.
A Certificate of Authenticity from EXTINCTIONS is included with this specimen.
