  1. Hey, been a while, so i decided to start a new topic for the new year. Headed out on Thursday 25/01 to the river shores in Antwerp again. First hunt of the year since i've worked non-stop so far and a contractor is rebuilding our house.. It was great being out again so i was already pleased on beforehand, finding some nice teeth made it even better 😁 here's some in situ pics.. Rolled C. hastalis C. hastalis in excellent shape my first Parotodus benedeni ever, not in great shape but an awesome find anyway 😀 Finally a complete 6cm C. hastalis VID20240125131132.mp4 And some random mammal teeth Had a great first hunt of the year, and I already feel like going back! oh yeah, here's the whole lot cleaned up.. Surprised about how many different species i got covered this time 😄 Grtz, Dries

    New Member from FL

    Hey everyone! My name is Josh. My girlfriend (totallydigsit) and I have recently gotten into hunting for fossils and decided to join the forum We are based in FL and have primarily searched along the Peace River near Zolo Springs and Arcadia (two spots we found during our initial research). We've found a variety of smaller bone fragments and shark teeth, but hoping to score the bigger pieces! Looking forward to sharing our findings and getting to know the community! - Josh
  3. Thank you for adding me. I hope this is the correct place to add this photo and request assistance. I was given these teeth and need help to identify them. Any help is appreciated.

    Purse and Calvert Finds

    Had a quick hunt at Purse State park, first time! only about two hours on the beach and found a lot! no big ones but a bunch of interesting sand tigers. Then had some time at my Calvert Cliffs spot, and just as I thought the hunt was a bust, I found a nice tooth! Not sure what the big one is but I think it is a Hastalis? Anyway, great time both hunts!

    Yet another mysterious Shark tooth.

    Hello. I am here with another unknown shark tooth. This one I personally found. For a while I believed it to be from Hastalis, but I have doubts after searching it up. It is around 5-3 million years old. It was also found alongside what I believe to be a Scylirhinoid vertebrae.

    Identification help please

    Found in Venice Fl at caspersen beach, any help on identification will be amazing.
  7. Hi All! I'm currently saving up to pursue my PhD in Archaeology (focus on pre-colonial N. America, Pre-Bronze Age Aegean, and Human Evolution) and am an avid rock and fossil collector! Living in NYC, I mostly hunt with my partner in NJ, but am originally from the California coast and often make trips back to the golden coast. Very interested in both collectible and "observation only" in-situ finds. Long-time lurker of the forum, but finally decided to join in on the discussions! Thanks everyone!
  8. While the Megalodon tooth seems to exist as THE find for many fossil hunters and/or amateur marine paleontologists alike (and rightly so!) it's never been my own personal "holy grail." However. My partner, who graciously tags along and searches with me whenever I drag him out on hunts often hours (or even days) of driving away, is absolutely enamored by the idea of finding one of these guys. I've heard many good things about Ernst Quarries/Sharktooth Hill and the private land surrounding it in Kern County, but I've also heard incredible things about Florida creek hunting - mostly Peace River and some, unfortunately, Top-Secret spots. We luckily have the opportunity right now to go on one (or both if we play our (credit) cards right) of these trips and was hoping those more experienced in the culture of "Meg Madness" would be able to provide any advice, pointers, opinions, comments, concerns, etc.?
  9. Hello. I am a beginner fossil hunter and collector. About an hour ago, I went to the bookstore near my country property and bought two teeth. One I believe I have identified as a Tiger shark tooth, coming from Bone Valley (Polk County, Florida). However the second is more mysterious. It appears to be a small baby megalodon tooth without a bourlette. It measures 1.9 cm (0.75 inches). It also appears to have potentially lost part of its root. It appears vaguely similar in shape to my Megalodon tooth. If someone can potentially identify it, that would be great!
  10. I recently sculpted a super-sized Paraorthacodus clarkii shark tooth using epoxy putty, based on examples I've found from the Paleocene of Maryland, USA. The sculpture is about 5 inches (13 cm) wide vs. 0.35-0.5 inches (9-13 mm) wide for the teeth I've actually found. The enamel coloring (acrylic paint) on this is more fantastical than my previous Cretodus tooth sculpture, though is still loosely inspired by blue-grays on some of my actual teeth. Here's the finished sculpture after painting: Here's the sculpture before coloring (I forgot to take photos before doing any painting, but the images below are the tooth with a light coat of primer): For comparison, here's the most complete example of Paraorthacodus clarkii I've found and that's in my collection: And another example that I relied on quite a bit while creating this sculpture:
  11. I found this tooth on a dredge island in georgia it’s probably the biggest piece of megalodon tooth ive ever found and was wondering if theres any experts that could say how big the tooth was whole. Ive done some speculating with a drawing but wanted other opinions.
  12. It’s her biggest one and we always wondered what it is. But now I’m starting to get more into fossils
  13. I’m trying to get better at identification so I labeled the pieces with what I think they are but some I can’t figure out. I would love some guidance if anyone has any input! Thanks Fernandina Beach Amelia Island Florida USA
  14. From the album: Fossils

    2.4 inch Otodus aksuaticus shark tooth from the Eocene Nanjemoy Formation of Maryland. This is a good example of the transition from obliquus to auriculatus, with serrations extending about halfway down the crown.

    MARYLAND Represent!

    I just started fossil hunting again and I am looking forward to hitting up the best MD and VA spots! Here is today's hunt!

    Peace river is kind of high 🤣..next best thing is to hit the tribs.. it breaks my heart when you think you found a real nice hemi, but.. turns into a broken heart..a day out is still better than home.

    Peace River guide

    Looking for a recommendation for a Peace River guide.
  18. Ever since seeing @sharko69's Monster Texas Cretodus, I've dreamed of owning a very large Cretodus tooth. Well, now I have one, and at 6 3/8" on the slant, I believe it to be world-record sized. (I sculpted this using epoxy putty and colored it with acrylic paint.) The top row below is the tooth prior to painting. Here's an in situ shot.
  19. From the album: Fossils

    Two Notorynchus symphyseal teeth from the Miocene Calvert Formation in central Virginia. Both have a funky center tooth and are about .65 inches wide.

    Florida meg

    Just posting for those who wanna see cool teeth. This is my best megalodon tooth and my second largest meg being 4.5-4.6 inches. Found in a florida creek during my last trip.
  21. Terminal Stareasaurus

    Shark tooth ID?

    What might be the species of this shark tooth. Besides the broken root it is complete with fantastic serrations.
  22. Found this off Wrightsville Beach NC, is it a Meg chunk? Notice the tiny speck of blue enamel and nice line along the root?
  23. Frightmares

    Small Gainesville shark tooth

    Found this tiny tooth in a Gainesville creek. Looks like it has a cusp on one side. Could it possibly be a juvenile Great White tooth? I looked on elasmo but I don't see anything that quite fits the profile of it. It's about 12mm in length.

    Yorktown Formation Hexanchus griseus Tooth

    From the album: Fossils

    This is a 1.6 inch blue-enameled Hexanchus griseus (aka gigas) from the famous Lee Creek mine. It is from the Pliocene Yorktown Formation sediments.

    Is this a real shark tooth or shell?

    can anyone tell by the picture whether or not this is a shark tooth or a shell? I found it on the coast of Georgia a few weeks ago I’ve read a little bit about shark teeth versus shells in the Internet. The more I think about it, I’m much more confused. Can anyone please tell me your thoughts.
