Carcharocles angustidens Tooth

This is an uncommon US shark tooth. It is an excellent Carcharocles angustidens - extinct precursor to the giant Carcharocles megalodon. This tooth is in nice condition, with the enamel beautifully preserved. The large serrations and one cusp are easily seen, and the root is quite robust. The color of this tooth is quite beautiful. And the other side of the tooth displays well, also. This is a very nice, large example of this unusual fossil shark tooth.
