Found this nice little tooth on Chippokes plantation down in southern VA. It’s just over 1 1/4 inches. It looks meg-ish, but it just seems a bit off. Any ideas?

Stopped in Chippokes State Park on my way to Norfolk VA. It is a historical plantation on the banks of the James River. Fossil collecting is legal and encouraged , however sections of the beach are divided by rip-rap, and other sections are prohibited because of cliff falls. I collected on the beach, and in walking in the near woods ( to avoid climbing over the rip-rap) came upon a small recent hill slide. The beach picture is from the Chippokes web site taken by Sean Hazzarts, the shell hash photo shows typical beach accumulation, and the green photo shows my woody hill. The other randomized pictures are my finds for the day. A ecphora, several Chesapectin jeffersonia, a drum fish mouth plate (I thought at first that it was a croc scute until I turned it over) . It is another place where I didn't find a megalodon though they are reported here. It is a nice place to visit in the summer, beach, water, fossils and family.

I FINALLY found some shark teeth today at Chippokes Plantation State Park on the James River in VA. Would you all please help me ID these 3? The other 2 I found were definitely tiger shark.
