Shark Tooth ID

I got this tooth as a kid so I don’t have a lot of info on it. I haven’t been able to figure out the species and am looking for some help.

This is a great white shark tooth (Carcharodon carcharias), and a very nice one at that. The preservation and colors are reminiscent of teeth found in South America.
