sebbe_07 Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 Hi, I found this flint stone close to the ocean south of Gothenburg,Sweden and it really looks like a tooth. The measurement on the pics are in cm. 3,5cm (1,38 inches) x 4cm (1,57 inches) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tidgy's Dad Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 I don't see any enamel. Just a pointy bit of chert, I'm afraid. 1 Life's Good! Tortoise Friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fossildude19 Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 No enamel, so no tooth. Sorry, but this is just a suggestively shaped rock. I can definitely see why someone might assume it was a tooth, but the morphology is wrong. 1 Tim - VETERAN SHALE SPLITTER VFOTM --- APRIL - 2015 __________________________________________________ "In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks."

sebbe_07 Posted August 12, 2021 Author Share Posted August 12, 2021 Thanks for your replies! No chance this could be a fossil of a claw instead of a tooth? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tidgy's Dad Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 Nope. I can see enough of the wider end to be fairly convinced it's chert. 1 Life's Good! Tortoise Friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
