Shark Teeth Mystery

My best guess is the black shark tooth is a sand shark and maybe the grey is a great white . . . have no idea what the gold sample is! Any thoughts?

Hi There,

 

Without location information (?) (and really worn teeth, like the darker tooth) it can be difficult. The one on the far right is a Hemipristis serra (snaggletooth shark) and the one on the left looks like an Otodus Obliquss from Morocco.  Scale would also/always help. 

 

For Reference:

Otodus
