Name:
Carcharocles megalodon Tooth
Age: Miocene
Formation: River Deposits
Location: South Carolina
Size: Tooth is 5.5 inches long
Now this is a striking fossil shark tooth. It is a very large Meg tooth from the Extinct White Shark, Carcharocles megalodon. This colorful tooth has chrysacolla polished in the center of the tooth, giving it a rich blue-green color. The black and olive-colored enamel on the edges of the tooth complements the chrysacolla to make for a very beautiful tooth. But the beauty does not end there! The tooth is huge - five and a half inches long! The tip and serrations are intact and beautifiully preserved, making this tooth that much more collectible. And the back side of the tooth is also very impressive. This is a top quality display fossil shark tooth for a collection or conversation piece. (White spots are glare on the photo, not on the tooth.)
