This is a killer fossil shark tooth. It is a huge Carcharocles megalodon shark tooth from North Carolina. Megalodon teeth from North Carolina have become very scarce, to say the least. The overall quality of this tooth is absolutely fabulous. The tip is essentially intact and pointy, and the serrations are almost fully intact and razor-sharp. The root is very solid and substantial and is extemely thick and robust. The classic blond coloration of the enamel is wonderfully preserved - the tooth is simply beautiful. This is a very collectible fossil shark tooth from the famous Lee Creek Mine in North Carolina.
