Bails Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Hi all, I went out for a quick shark tooth hunt this evening in Charleston, SC and had some awesome luck! I found these two Alopias grandis teeth right next to each other! They measure at 1.575 inches and are much larger than the other ones I have found. I also found a small lower Great White with a fully in tact root for the first time which have been hard to come by in Charleston. Love the dark blue crown and light colored root on it. Of course my phone died after I took the in situ picture of the Great White so I couldn’t get any in situ pictures of the two Alopias grandis teeth. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
