CLICK HERE TO LEARN MORE ABOUT MEGALODON
The massive Megalodon shark is one of the largest and most fearsome predators that ever existed in the ancient seas. Owning a genuine, fine quality tooth from these terrible creatures of prehistory is the pride of many collectors. This high grade tooth came from the famous shark known scientifically as Carcharocles megalodon - the largest and deadliest shark that ever lived! This spectacular tooth is 5.25" in length, a very large size. Exceeding the magic 5 inch mark puts this tooth in a very desirable and impressive size class. There is an intact tip with slight feeding wear from when this massive shark was alive. The enamel is a light steel silvery, blue gray color with strong chatoyance and highlights of reflective steel gray colors. Root is solid and stabilized with sediment still impacted in the cracks. NO REPAIR AND NO RESTORATION.
Teeth like these are getting certainly harder to come by in today's market. Unlike all other types of fossils, ANY repair or restoration to Megalodon teeth DRAMATICALLY LOWERS THE VALUE!
