Last week I was on holiday in the Netherlands/Belgium and I found many things! I mainly hunted at the beaches near Cadzand but I was also in the area of Antwerp. There the quality of the shark teeth is much better and you can find more and rarer ones At the sand pit the Miocene, Pliocene sand was washed up from the extension of Churchill dock and as you can see the area is very overgrown. You can still find there many shark teeth, bones and bivalves. I mainly concentrated on finding shark teeth. The best method to find something there is to dig a bit and then sieve the material. Here is a picture of the site: The total haul: The better ones: This was one of the best finds: Its about 5 cm long and I think that its an Isurus Hastalis (please correct me if I am wrong ) I like the colors on this one: (3.5 cm) A sweet little Galeocerdo Aduncus tooth: (1.2 cm) And last but not least this was probably my rarest find there: Small but nice Its an upper tooth of Somniosus microcephalus. I already have a lower tooth but thats the first upper for me! I am very happy with it Thanks for watching and I hope you enjoyed my little hunting trip! Of course any ID help is welcome!

These little guys keep popping up in my collection as I sift through attempting to identify all of my teeth, I'm thinking small extinct tiger shark teeth but I always have trouble with the little ones. Any help appreciated-found Myrtle Beach, South Carolina

Just thought I'd share some cool pictures I took with my macro lens, getting up close and personal with the knife-like serrations of a few teeth that I've found on my trips. Enjoy!

Today I visited one of my local shark tooth sites for a bit of scratching in the sandy conglomerate. I usually end up with a few Carcharias teeth after an hour or so, but this time this tooth popped out along with them. Could someone please confirm if this is a Galeocerdo posterior tooth, or could it be something else? The site is in the Miocene Ottnangian. Its 12mm. long

Hello everyone, I've had an opportunity .. since school has ended, and ok in full disclosure I was there a few weeks before we let out, to hit the creeks and do a little sifting. Found some verts including a decent sized whale vert not shown here. Plenty of teeth with color and some 3" fraglodons and what-a-shame-rs. Weather has been mild for this time of year. So besides the quart of blood loss due to the hordes of mosquitos it has been a fun start to the break. Enjoy ! The largest Hemi in my collection .. a black beauty weighing in at 1.25". Some tiger teeth are always on offer .. the color has been getting more varied. A few Angustidens .. this is the best of the three missing one side cusp each .. *sigh*

Hi all, Is this a tiger shark? If so, from what species? For now I'm thinking Galeocerdo latidens, but I'm not sure... It's from Balegem, Belgium (--> Lutetian, Eocene; 45 mya). Thanks in advance, Max

I found this his big tiger shark tooth at a local rock shop today. The tag says Eocene but no location info is provided and the store worker had no idea. It looks modern, but the enamel has chipped back a bit as if fossilized. Was wondering what you guys thought? cheers!

Hey everyone, I have been trying to determine if my different tiger shark teeth are galeocerdo cuvier or aduncus, and it seems that every time I read identification guides/forums I just get more and more confused. Can anyone identify these and give me a good method of telling them apart? Too often I see that aduncus is smaller and thinner, but I am curious if there is a better way than size. Thank you very much!
