Hi, I found these recently while searching Post Oak Creek in Texas for shark teeth. The bone is approximately 3.125 inches long. It wasn't found near the tooth. The tooth looks similar to a coyote or wolf canine tooth? I can't really make out the line where it would transition to the exposed part of the tooth in person, but I can barely see it in the 1st picture. I'm not really sure on the small white fossil on the blue paper... Any thoughts? Thanks

I found my first shark tooth on edisto island in South Carolina yesterday! I’ve been researching to try to figure out what kind it is, because it’s like nothing I’ve ever seen, but can’t find anything quite like it on my own. The closest I could find was “megalolamna paradoxodon” and have attached a picture of that as well. It’s very similar, but not quite like it. Thanks in advance for your help, I’m extremely interested and excited to figure this out!!

Found this a year or two back while creek walking in Central Texas (Austin area). I always figured it was just part of a cretaceous era shell which are so common in our creeks. But I've recently seen pictures of mastodon enamel, and I've gotta say it looks similar. Any chance I'm on to something?

Not sure what shark(?) tooth this is, has very heavy root on a small (quarter inch squares) tooth Tiny fish(?) tooth, tough to photograph well with my equipment. Tooth is about 3mm long, less than 1mm wide Not sure what this might be. About an inch long

This is a fossils I found on Edisto Beach in South Carolina. To this point I've assumed it's a tooth but I'm not 100% due to the apparent lack of a root. I originally thought it belonged to some kind of ungulate but under further research it could possibly even be some carnivorous incisor? Either way the curiosity is killing me! Tell me what you guys think. I left the photos large to retain detail. It is exactly 1 inch in length, or about 2.5 centimeters And 3/8 inches in height, or about 1 centimeter If you need any other angles just let me know, its super hard to photograph.

***Picture Heavy*** Went down to my local beach after work on Monday with the intention of looking for plant seeds from the London Clay beds. After waiting half an hour for the tide to recede i could get to the best material.... Within the first five minutes something large caught my eye in one of the material piles.....See if you can spot it... A nearly perfect 58mm Otodus! With intact cusps and serrations, maybe an Otodus Aksuaticus? Needless to say it was a bit of a surprise! Found a few of the usual Striatolamia teeth in situ. And a bit of a ray plate. Found a fish vert slowly wearing out of the clay. A few seeds and a tiny bone (10mm) photos are of poor quality but any ideas of what it is? Seeds. Tiny bone. The tide had started to come in by that point so headed up onto the beach. Photos showing the red crag cliffs with the London Clay bed below it. This part of the beach is picked over a lot so i do not tend to spend to much time there. (Unless its productive such as after a storm where the shingle gets washed away to expose the London clay beds under it then it is incredible ) Few beach finds, the majority are a bit worn after being rolled around by the waves etc. Few partials of much bigger teeth. So in all, quite a productive couple of hours! Thanks all!

I found this interesting piece on a beach that was very popular for finding shark's teeth. The specimen was found on the gulf side of Florida and is approximately 2.5 cm in length. There appears to be rings on the lip of the fossil and the "tooth" area appears to be made in flat symetrical layers in two separate stacks. A passerby on the beach described it as a tooth that had been completely worn down while to me it more resembles a bit of a turtles shell. any guestimates are appreciated!

Hello, I´m not sure about the ID. For me the tooth looks like a Hemipristis or a bull shark tooth. The tooth is from the Indo-Pacific (Phillippines) and 1/2" (1,5cm) in lenght. I want to be sure with the ID because I do not want to buy a tooth of a protected species. I don´t know, if the question is correctly ask in the Fossilforum, but I hope, that you can help me. Kind regards from Germany

Hello, This is my latest acquisition. A tooth of carcharodontosaurus sp (impossible to certify that it is saharicus I think?). How do you find it? Is it a nice piece ? There is a lot of restoration or red flag ? Thanks !

Hello everyone, I’m looking at a partial triceratops frill with tooth in original matrix. I only have very little experience with teeth and vertebrae. Would love to know what everyone’s thoughts are on it and if this is authentic or not? Wyoming, montana Hell Creek formation.

Hello everyone!! I’ve just added a new tooth to my collection that puts my t rex tooth to shame and I wanted to get everyone’s opinion on if this is in fact a 5 inch carcharodontosaurus tooth? I’ve done some research and I’m kind of confident that it is. Kind Regards Dylan Macnish

I've come across this theropod tooth from Morocco online. I strongly think it's Carcharodontosaurid, but the colouration and general shape doesn't seem to be too far off from what I've seen of Chenanisaurus (mainly looking at photos of @Troodon's). Just to rule out the chance that it does come from the phosphate mines, could anyone provide any input one way or another? The photos provided are the only ones available, I'm afraid. Tooth measures: 4cm.

I recently saw this therapod indet. tooth for sale from the Lourinhã formation, Portugal. It measures 21.99mm x 10.40mm x 3.78mm. How does it look and are those lines cracks/wear or natural? Also does anyone have any idea on the ID? How is the quality and should I consider buying it or pass it on?

Hi guys, I found this mammal tooth a while ago at the Zandmotor near Den Haag in the Netherlands. You can find there fossils from the Quaternary period. The tooth is about 2 cm long and the crown is quite damaged. Looks a bit like a very small woolly rhino tooth but I am really not sure. Can anybody help me? Maybe @Harry Pristis or @LordTrilobite ? Here is the tooth:
