Hey, I want to quiz y’all and see y’all’s knowledge on sharks! This tooth came from the east coast of North Carolina! (That’s all I’ll give you) it’s not a common find!

That’s a cool looking tooth! Is it a serrated giant thresher?

That was my thought, but it has what looks to be a nutrient groove which is throwing me off.

Fossils? I dig it. :meg:

A Great Hammerhead I think ;) 

Reminds me of the species' modern teeth
