Well my little Eocene Castle Hayne Formation pit has coughed up another amazing Hexanchus agassizi tooth. That is 3 very nice rooted ones in about 4 months. Here it is.

I also found this really nice Macrorhyzodus americana the same day

Here is a sampling of other teeth and such from there. These are not from the same day, I have not cleaned the rest of the finds from that day yet.

behind the trailer, my desert
Them red clay piles are heaven on earth
I get my rocks off, bulldozers and dirt
