Ouch! That hurt me, and I wasn't even there! :( 

That would have been a monster.

That's the way it goes sometimes. 
Glad I'm not the only one who finds some heartbreaking fossils, though. :)

Hi RB,

 

There's a tendency among shark tooth collectors not to restore teeth.  Some people do restore part of a megalodon to make it complete, but for the most part, we leave them alone.  I think that's definitely a keeper as-is.  It can be used as a reference specimen for size in a display or just with other Cretodus teeth.  I think it's a Cretodus anyway.

Heh. I’ve got 4 hours in on POC and have yet to find a shark’s tooth! Lots of clams, of course, and tons of neat human stuff (glass & pottery shards — I can’t resist, must be part magpie). Nice almost find. :-D

I can totally relate to this. We find many roo jaws and a couple what we believe are Palorchestes but they are missing every single tooth.. the nescessasy bits to ID. Yuck.

 

cool tooth, though :)
