This is a large, anterior example of Otodus obliquus from the Early Eocene (Ypresian) of Morocco. While this species is also found in the Late Paleocene (Thanetian) of North Africa, this example best matches the Eocene dentition presented on elasmo.com. The upper and lower anterior teeth resemble one another in the image on elasmo, so I cannot specify which position this example represents.
