Hello again, I was doing some surface collecting in Oakland County michigan-- typically the fossils around here are preserved inside of pieces of limestone... I'm no expert on fish or sharks so I'm not sure what exactly this imprint is, but it reminds me of a tooth. Would anybody be able to confirm/deny this? The rock in question is about the size of a dime. Thank you!

Here is a shark tooth I believe I found in peace river (fl) although I don’t really remember. It is about a .8 inch tooth. The reason I’m not sure the type of shark this is is because of its thickness. It reminds me of a bull shark but has an odd shape and is thicker than most teeth I find. Anyone know if this is a bull shark or something else?

It has been a bit since I have done a post. It has been over a year since I have been out hunting. I am days away for things to open up for me.... finally. I am ready to just live in a creek and look for fossils for weeks. I have been lucky to pass the time over the year looking through matrix from different locations. I was very fortunate and extemely thankful to receive some matrix from @sharkdoctor. These two squalus teeth are from matrix in Calvert Formation in central Virginia. Each of them are just a tad over 1mm. Found this one last week Just found t

2 days ago I found a beautiful jet black fossilised great white shark tooth almost 4cm long on a Sunshine Coast beach. I think it may be a lucky find as we’ve combed the beach for a few days now at low tide and nothing more to be found. I haven’t been able to find anything about finds in this area either. Not sure if anyone knows if it is a rare thing here?

Posterior GW tooth from Eastern NC, USA. 20 mm root to tip. -
I decided to go through my Carcharhinus teeth, since I have no hammerhead teeth. What do you think about the one on the left?

Found this past weekend at the Brownwood dam spillway in Texas. White tip was sticking out. Was on a large stone that tumbled from further up. It's really brittle, and was already cracked in the stone. Was trying to take it out with surrounding stone but it came out as I was doing it in a few pieces. Was hoping for a more specific species beyond the Petalodus genus if possible.

I have here a 5.7" Indonesian Megalodon. I don't see any red flags for repairs or restorations but more eyes on this would be lovely. Anyone see anything I may have missed? Thank you, Bellamy

Hey all! I was wondering if you could tell me whether this tooth is C. Hubbelli or C. Carcharias? It’s 1.23” long and from Chile. TIA

I have here four shark teeth, 1" - 1.5" each. They were found in the Southeastern United States. I have no locality more specific than that. I think they're Angustidens or Auriculatus, but I can't really differentiate between these. Could anyone kindly help me identify them? I'd also appreciate if someone can nail the locality down based on the preservation. It's chalky, but the colors of the more orange ones don't really match Bone Valley. Might it be a South Carolina landsite? Thank you, Bellamy 1 2 3

This is from the Aurora North Carolina matrix. I have tried to ID this little tooth (4 mm) and have been unable to find a match. It seems different than any of the others I've come across. Any help will be appreciated! Plus here's a few other things that I'd love an ID if possible! Thanks y'all! 1. 2. Also found this tooth (assuming it is probably a fish tooth?) 4mm also 3.and then this thing - also thinking it's something "fishy" ? 6 mm

Thanks to a post from Candace ( @thelivingdead531 ) I found out about the Aurora Fossil Museum's box o' matrix that they sell! (all moneys benefit the museum, which was a bonus). I got two Gallon Bags of matrix to sift through and wow....some really great stuff! They send a really good ID sheet too. But of course, there's even more info here on the FF! So here are some of my favorite finds so far. I've only gone through about 6 cups of matrix!! SO MUCH MATRIX! I havn't really done much ID'ing yet (the shark teeth) but my favorite by far is the crab stuff....love those pincers!! And the colo

Beautiful Meg tooth with razor sharp serrations. -
Hi All I found my largest shark tooth this past weekend here in New Zealand. I thought it was a Great White at first but a few people have thought it might be a transitional one. I was wondering if one of the shark tooth experts could have a look and let me know their thought Here is a bit of video of it as well: https://youtu.be/U-i8W2aOtLE?t=373 Thanks!

Otodus aksuaticus (Transitional Otodus)
BellamyBlake posted a topic in Member Fossil Trades Bulletin Board
I have here a rarely offered transitional Otodus tooth from Kazakhstan. Note the partial and developing serrations. I believe this is Otodus aksuaticus. It's 1.25" across with no repairs or restorations. There's a missing cusp, just a simple restoration away should you choose to do that. I'll trade it for a range of vertebrate material. I'm especially interested in crocs and sharks from exotic localities, but feel free to surprise me -
