Show Us Your Wide Boys! A Thread For The Widest And Fattest Megalodon Teeth
Kurufossils posted a topic in Member Collections
Heres a fun thread for those to show off their widest and fattest looking megalodon teeth fossils in thier collections. I'll set the tone with the widest fat boy in my collection, I don't have digital calipers but it measure roughly 5.4 inches wide by 6.1 inches long. When I close my hand together it looks even more monstrous. Share yours and join the wide boyclub Got the idea while thinking about what the widest megalodon tooth ever found measures, if anyone does know do share in this thread!

Hi all, about two months ago I asked about ramenessin or big brook being better. Here are my finds from about six two hour hunts at ramenessin brook, and searching gravel I took home, it’s more fun searching there but bringing some home and searching through it is better than not looking at all. The best finds are a couple of 1-1.5 inch shark teeth, a small croc tooth, a rat fish jaw, a small shark vert, a very water worn sawfish tooth, a burrow with invert fecal pellets, two ammonite fragments, shell casts, a small shark tooth I believe is a nice angel shark tooth, a drum fish tooth, an Enchodus tooth with jaw attached, and some shark teeth with really nice colors! If anyone could confirm the angel shark tooth is really an angel shark tooth @The Jersey Devil @Trevor @hokietech96 @frankh8147 @Darktoothit would be greatly appreciated!

Hi, I recently found these set of fossils in Big Brook (river) in New Jersey. I would like to get them identified as I am not skilled enough in the field to identify them myself. The fossils were found in a shallow river bed in gravel areas. There are shells, a shark tooth, and other items. I would love to gain some knowledge on the topic. Thank you

Great day in big brook from 7am to 12 noon. Whole bunch of shark teeth including the biggest one I’ve found yet; 1.25 inch goblin plus a lot of John Snow teeth. A couple of pycnodont and a couple of cow nosed rays. One small enchodus and a couple of TBDs. Did also find one tick when I got home so be aware

Hi everyone, In the spirit of scratching my itch to hunt, I imported some matrix from Central Florida. It was around one quart. I'll share my findings, though I haven't identified too many yet. If anyone has any suggestions or corrections, I'd appreciate it! These are the highlights. Megalodon fragment; and the next two are possibly from the same lineage but I'm not sure. Maybe a prehistoric crocodile or alligator tooth My best guess would be a crocodile or alligator femur Not a clue Again, not sure other than wagering at a deer tooth Manatee molar I want to say these are fragments of mammoth or mastadon tusks, but confirmation would be great Miscellaneous stuff, most of which I'm pretty sure are fossils but it's hard to ID any.

I found a rock on Stump Pass Beach in Englewood, FL. This said rock looks alot like a shark tooth. I had found several of the normal looking black teeth and I almost just cast this one aside, but it really resembles a shark tooth so I kept it. I just want to see if I can get verification if what I found is a really old fossilized tooth. Or not.

Hi. For Father's Day my kids got me an electic microscope. I have been picking through Lee Creek matrix that I purchased to get me through quarantine. I am really not familiar with smaller teeth so it would be greatly appreciated if anyone can confirm my ID. Enjoy the pics. For all the Dad's, I hope you had a great Father's day! This tooth is 2-3mm. I thought it was small tooth sand tiger but the root seems rather large. I have been all through Elasmo.com and I cannot find a match. The next 2 teeth cusps and the blade remind me of a mackerel but the root does not match a mackerel so I am kind of at a loss.

Paleo Society of Austin had our first field trip since February. Spent four hours and found a smattering of good specimens. I already have a good variety from there so at this point I am looking for the odd species that has eluded me or better ones of what I already have. Found a few of each. One odd bit was this weird tooth crown I found on a tiny little spit of gravel. Photos are not great but maybe someone has a SWAG, or better, for me.

saturday was my 8th trip to Big Brook and came away with shark teeth, a (modern) deer jawbone, a Jergens Lotion glass bottle (1970s?) and a really cool iridescent rock the likes of which i've never seen there before. And possibly a lobster fossil.

Hi everyone, I have here 4 partial tooth fragments. They were found in Charleston, South Carolina. I believe the first one is C. Angustiden, while the rest are Megalodon. Could anybody kindly confirm?

Hi guys! I’m new to this, but my wife and I have been shark tooth hunting for the past month thanks to “quarantine”. We have found some interesting things, but can’t seem to pin point what they are exactly. We believe some may be megalodon teeth, great white teeth, and a dugong bone. All were found at Onslow beach,NC. We appreciate your guys help!

Hi everyone, I have here fossils found off a river bank near Charleston, South Carolina. I believe I know what some of these are, but would like some confirmation. For many of them, I have pretty much no idea. I'd appreciate any help! 1) Carcharocles Angustiden? 2) Megalodon fragment possibly 3 3) Front/back of the same tooth fragment 4) Front/back of the same tooth fragment. Megalodon possibly? 5) Front/back. Might it be a whale bone? 6) Front/back. I think many of the ones following are whale or dolphin bones. 7) Front/back 8) Front/back 9) Front/back 10) These looked similar to me, maybe fish tail bones? 11) Front/back 12) Front/back 13) Front/back 14) Front/back

Hi everyone, Some time ago I was doing some prep on a block from the Phospate mines of Khouribga in Morocco (Cretaceous, Maastrichtian, 70 mya) with some Idgamanosaurus teeth in it. There were a lot of goodies in the block besides the two rooted Igdamanosaurus teeth like some coprolites, fish verts, a mosasaur tooth, Cretalamna tooth & Enchodus tooth. But I also found this little shark tooth which is around 2 mm in length, but I can't seem find a proper ID for it. So I was hoping that there might be someone here on the forum with some knowlegde on micro teeth from Khouribga that might know what this tooth is. Thank you in advance!

I can't travel far at the moment so all my hunting for the past couple of months has been in a local Lower Carboniferous, Asbian aged freshwater lacustrine deposit, the Burdiehouse Limestone. This is one of the most laterally extensive beds in the Midland Valley of Scotland and luckily theres a few good eposures of it nearby where past quarrying has left some nice productive spoil heaps. I'm always hoping for complete fish when hunting in this bed but none have turned up so far in the recent hunts. I have been lucky on the tooth front though and came across my first lungfish tooth plate from this bed which I was really happy with The petalodont tooth Ageleodus pectinatus has been the most common find. These were some of my favourites, they range from 3mm to 6mm. I've also doubled my collection of these little Xenacathid teeth but I'm still not sure exactly what genus they belong to. They're pretty tiny little things, the larger of these two is 4mm and the smaller only 2mm. Holocephalan teeth are really rare in this formation so was very pleased with this one, its the largest Ive found so far at 6mm. Not sure of the ID but thinking some sort of Helodontid. The lungfish tooth plate, its still attached to the mandible and the whole thing is only 5mm long! Think its probably a Ctenodus sp. but not sure.

I was assigned a project on the culture of Micronesia for my AP world history class, so I decided to build a tebutje (shark sword) to show the traditional warfare techniques of the region........ I had a lot of fun with this, and it was a good way to use some of the extra shark teeth I had in my collection! I attached a section of video I used for the project that shows the building and trial of my tebutje, I hope you have some fun with it too! * I may have mis-IDed some of the shark's teeth, my history teacher doesn't know much about sharks...so I'm good on that end. if you see a mis-IDed tooth, let me know! a photo of the final design:

Receiving this gorgeous but mysterious specimen is from Upper Pennsylvanian limestone dated around 290-300 million years ago from somewhere around Kansas City. Looks like a tooth to me and my best guess would be orodus? But I have little experience with Pennsylvanian shark teeth in general and especially from this area, also cannot find a comparison elsewhere online. Any help will be appreciated.

Hi! I just returned home from the Venice Beach area in Florida and I was curious if anyone one could tell me what these broken fragments could have been. I’m a newbie here so any other recommendations on how to identify are welcomed thanks in advance
