Here is a distinct tooth from the first true White Shark. This is a beautiful Paleocarcharodon orientalis tooth from the Paleocene of Morocco. The razor-sharp serrations are clearly defined, and the very tip of the tooth is pointed and in excellent condition. The root is robust and wonderfully preserved. The yellow-orange enamel of the tooth is quite striking. This is a displayable example of this ''showy'' fossil shark tooth.
This fossil was collected and obtained legally, and is also being sold legally.
