Hello! I know you guys get these question a lot. However, We found this on the beach on outside of Valencia, Spain, on the Balearic Sea coast and would humbly request your help in identifying if this is an actual shark tooth or just a weirdly shaped rock? Thanks in advance!

Hi everyone, I have some material from Peace River, Florida, that I think is mostly from fish. I'm a lot better with sharks, while I have some idea what these things are, confirmation would be great. This vert is about 1" - is it too small to be a shark? Would this be a ray tail barb? These look like barracuda teeth to me, though the 2nd and 3rd may simply be broken shark teeth Lastly, I'm not sure if this is even a fossil - 1 1/2":

For the purposes of my birthday, I would like to get a small collection of early shark teeth. They've always been sort of a neglected interest of mine, so I am finally cataloguing what we have to arrange a small display as one of the subsets of our collection. However, with that, comes a bit of conflict. I have found some select teeth available I can pirchase, but am unsure which I want to follow through with (two separate sellers). I can either: 1) Get a cladodus tooth from Illinois, Stethacanthus tooth from Oklahoma (tip broken and root not complete), and helodus tooth from Indiana (and POSSIBLY a Peripristis tooth from Kansas for an additional cost if I can swing it) OR 2) Same Cladodus and Stethacanthus tooth as above, with a Petalodus tooth from Oklahoma and Fossil Shark Teeth of the World book. With paying extra in shipping, both lots come to about the same price. So which would you choose? And why?

My lovely wife on a recent walk on the beach found a tooth, or at least I think it is. Maybe just a broken piece or coral. I hope someone with expertise can confirm for me. Here's three pictures:

Hi everyone, I've been looking for a Carcharocles aksuaticus tooth online. It seems really hard to find one, which leads me to believe there might be a synonym for it that I don't know about (other than Otodus aksuaticus). There was a thread here a few years ago wherein someone suggested that Otodus subserratus may be the same thing. Based on what I can tell, that isn't true. However, could anyone confirm whether this is accurate please?

Hi everyone, I have here 3 teeth from a river in Florida which I'm having some trouble identifying. I do believe that the top two may be bull, but ultimately am not sure. Those are 1/2" each; the bottom partial is 1"

I hunted a remote stretch in Northeast Texas and found a nice variety of items. The vert is from a good size mosasaur. The sawfish teeth always seem to be broken. I found some small shark teeth and a piece of cretaceous turtle shell. The bottles are from the 1930's and 1940's. I really like the Groves Tasteless Chill Tonic bottle. I posted a little info on the old bottles. We saw at least twenty wild hogs in one pack crossing the creek and one giant solo wild boar.

Location is in Missouri The area is dated to the Pennsylvanian most likely Raytown, Wyandotte Limestone I have found a few Prehistoric fish teeth in the area such as Orodus, Acrodus, Petalodus and some of their fragments. I believe the right sided one could be a Petalodus but I was not sure since I have not found a black tooth in the area besides this fragment. As for the left, I have no idea but I did note it had beautiful dimples along its surface. While they may be broken I hope that they can provide enough detail for identification! front side backside, left image has my camera flash on

Found this guy at the beach today. Haven’t found one like it before, and I have a hunch on what it might be but the cusps make me unsure. Doesn’t look like there were any serrations. At least I don’t see remnants of them anyways. Similar root structure to that of a benedini. Any ideas?

Hi. i have found hundreds of sand shark teeth, several Mackerel Shark teeth and one Meg contender From this site but this very worn tooth does not seem to be similar enough to match my existing specimens. Can anyone help? it was found among the shingle to the north of the Naze towards Stone Point on the beach at Walton on the Naze, Essex, UK Apologies for the poor scale for non U.K. residents. The coin is approximately 2.3cm. The tooth Is fairly worn, thin and flat. Thanks in advance and if it’s too worn for an ID, no worries. It’s just nice to find something different!
