Hi, I found this awesome sand shark tooth on Indian Rocks beach, west coast of Florida. Usually the fossilized teeth I find in the Venice area are black and very worn and broken. It has a light blue gray color and a light brown root. It's the best looking tooth I ever found and was wondering if it is modern or fossil? Also if it is fossilized can you tell if it is an extinct sand shark tooth? Thanks!

Good morning All I've found a fossil in not-such-good shape, but I'm hoping you experts can identify it. If it is a tooth, the basal seems to have eroded completely off. I found it on the Gulf side of Ft. Pickens, on the beach--so it was dry & exposed to the air. We've been having southeasterly winds, which usually erode the beaches & push interesting things to the surface. One side has as unusual pattern, which I hope comes through in the pictures. Would love to hear your theories of what it may be. Thanks! CVH

I recently purchased this tooth from a collector at the Tucson Gem and Mineral Show. He wasn't sure if the tooth was Pachy or Thescelosaur but upon looking at it more closely I'm not even sure if it isn't some sort of Ankylosaur. Any help would be great. The tooth was found in the Hell Creek Formation Perkins County, SD. Thanks! Ryan

Today I was working on my Otodus vertebrae cluster from Morocco and I found this. I found many bones and fish vertebrae in the cluster but nothing like this so far. Is it a tooth? I think it is but will like confirmation. If it is a tooth is it possible to identify the species? Length is about 4cm.

Real roots on these mosasaur teeth???
DatFossilBoy posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
Hey guys! Saw these two rooted mosasaur teeth. I was wondering if the roots are a composite or have been composited to the tooth. I saw so many that were composited,it’s unreal... They look pretty good to me especially the one on matrix but I just wanted to make sure. What do you guys think? Regards.

Sharks are cool. Super cool. I know this post will get the most views out of all of mine because sharks. But where are my gastropod / brachiopod lovers? Anyways heres the tooth. Can people tell me what this tooth is? Cannot disclose location because it was purchased in a bin full of shark teeth. Said they were prehistoric. About the size of a quarter

Saw this for sale- ID as unknown dinosaur from Morocco. It is 0.7" long. Anyone know what this might be?

I personally own a 1,57" (4cm) Squalicorax tooth from Morocco and was wondering how large they could get. What is the biggest Squalicorax tooth you guys have ever seen or own?

Here’s another find from the same north Texas creek. I’m thinking it’s a fragment of mastodon tooth enamel.

HI, Curious what this could be? It measures only 1mm found in Silurian deposit northern Illinois embedded in matrix along with pelecypods and gastropods. It looks like it could possibly be a tiny shark tooth, but I don't know anything about shark teeth. Are teeth ever found that small? At first thought maybe conodont but doesn't really have the caramel sheen to it. Any ideas? Any help appreciated.

Hello everyone. I saw this tooth being sold that was labeled as indeterminate, dinosaur tooth which is Moroccan and is 1.6cm. Does anyone have any suggestions or know what species it could be? Thanks.

Does anyone know how large basilosaurus canines can get? I don't know if they're all technically canine teeth, but I'm referring to the 4 to 5 single-point front teeth. Crown & root together.

I started collecting dinosaur fossils fairly recently and so far I have a pretty good working idea of what I have. There is one exception and I thought I would share on the Fossil Forum and see how far I can get with an ID. My guess is that it I will not get much further then unidentified theropod but it could be something completely I suppose. It does not really look like the Acheroraptor tooth I have and it is larger. It does not look like a Tyrannosaurus of any kind to me either. I will work on getting better pictures up though I did get some detailed shots of the serrations on the micro eye at work. This is my first attempt at really assessing a tooth so my language and/or wording may be not be correct. Call it the learning curve lol This is what I know It is from Hell Creek, Powder County Montana Slightly over 1/2 inch long This is what I observed Serrations are larger on one side than the other and extend further on one side. The denticles look a bit rounded to me and seem very uniform but are really quite small. I counted 5-6 per mm but I had a hard time counting them and am probably wrong lol I THINK it might be a Dromaeosaurid but I am calling it unidentified theropod for now. If you know your dino teeth and feel like giving an opinion, I would love the input. I may not know what it is but I do know that is a pretty nice tooth to have. The serrations are in great shape even though they are small and the tip is worn but not broken. I got it at a reasonable price to so regardless of what it is, I am pretty stoked !

So I do indeed know what this fossil is but was curious on the knowledge of the community. The blue picture is the fossil under black light. The size of the fossil is around 0.80 inches long and 0.50 inches wide. It has no serrated edges. Unfortunately, It was from an unknown part of the world because I bought it. This creature may be found in North America and Europe in oceans. Can anyone guess what this is?

I got this worn theropod tooth a little while ago. It's labeled as Nanotyrannus from the Lance Formation, Weston County, Wyoming. However, it looks a bit odd compared to other Nano teeth I've seen. Is it a tip from a larger tooth? Can it even be identified when this worn? Have at it Scale is in centimeters

my son found this at a beach while we were vacationing in Riveria Maya Mexico. we all think it looks like a tooth but it feels like a rock. it's about 4 - 5 inches long (about 12cm). here are the pictures.

Came across this picked up on Myrtle Beach last year. I set it aside but figured you guys might know what it is!

Found in my driveway in Annandale, VA. It actually looks a little like wood but is hard like rock. I'm not getting excited but a rockhound friend suggested i run it by you-all. Let me know your thoughts.

I was looking over some fossils in my collection, and can't remember where the heck I found this. I was thinking it is some type of whale tooth, but ..... it really doesn't look too much like the others I have found. I would greatly appreciate y'alls opinion. It is the lower item in the pictures. Thanks in advance

Hello all, I found this piece of bone on IRB, Florida and it's about 1/2" x 1/2". I know it's pretty small to ID but it has some distinctive marks on it. My initial guess was a juvenile horse tooth frag, but than I saw pics of sloth that had similarities. I have photos of 6 different views. The photos are not as sharp as I would like, but the best I can get. Can you ID it? Thanks so much!

This was found on my property in Ellis county Texas. Ellis county has history of mammoth fossil and we might of thought this part is a piece of a mammoth tooth?

Another horse tooth confirmation please. UPDATE: Giant Beaver incisor
PSchleis posted a topic in Fossil ID
I found this in Myrtle Beach. I assumed it was a fragment of a horse tooth. But I can’t find a tooth that looks quite like this. It seems to have far more many ridges and channels than other teeth I can find. Any experts out there that can confirm for me this is a horse and not something else?
