Hi I would like to get an id on this beautiful tooth that I just found in NMB,SC. One side of the root is significantly longer that the other side. The blade curves "in" near the tip. In my limited experience, it looks like a short finned mako lower tooth. It is 2 1/16 in slant height. The center of the root protudes out. What distinquishing factors will lead to an identification for this tooth? Appreciate your thoughts. Thanks

What is the etiquette on returning to spot shown to me by a fossil hunting guide? Last year a guide took me and some others to a nice creek in South Carolina. It's really the only spot I know of. Is it okay to return to it on my own, or is that frowned upon?

Found this little fossil today in a creek in South Carolina Lowcountry. Not sure what it is and the curvature is and turns in it made me curious what it could be. Any thoughts? Thanks, John

Found these while sifting in a creek in Summerville SC. Not sure if this a fragment of a tooth or some sort of rock/mineral growth. There's some strange layering on them and I havent seen anything like it before. Any help is appreciated, thanks.

Hi! My name is Michelle Huddleston. I live in Holly Springs, North Carolina. My husband and I have been collecting shark teeth for the past 9 years. We have a little over 10,000 shark teeth which most are small. These were collected at Myrtle Beach, SC. We want to up the game and start doing river hunting and quarry digging so we can find bigger teeth or unique colors. I did some research over the weekend. Looks like Summerville, SC is a hot spot but we don't know where to go. I found some quarries we can go to so that is set up. Anyone have a place we can go find megalodon teeth at? That is the one tooth we don't have yet. Thanks! I look forward to being in this group.
