I couldn't decide on just one so here is my top two teeth. A 4"er from Lee Creek and an almost 5" pristine tooth form Calvert Cliffs.

Yeah, asking me what my favorite tooth is is like asking me which of my kids is my favorite. I like them all. I guess this one, due to its sheer size and location (Aurora,) would be the favorite for most people. Definitely one of mine as well, but I can't really narrow it down to one.. or two.. or three...

It's right at the 6" mark.

Only 3 Inches but I keep on looking at it. I have an appreciation of Megs between 2.5 and 4 inches.

"Only 3 inches!" Mine is only half that! It's the only complete megalodon tooth I own! :)

That is a beautiful tooth!

Here is mine. I still love the color and unique pattern in this tooth compared to all the rest. It is a 5.8 inch Summerville Meg.

This one came from the Calvert County area. It measures 4" from tip to tip

Only picture i had handy is on my phone where the Meg tooth has not been singled out. (sorry for the other clutter)

Was going over my teeth the other night, I need to add this one to the favorites list. Possibly my favorite of all, given it's condition and pathology. It's not big (about 2.25",) but size doesn't matter. (Well, maybe my wife tells me that just to make me feel better, but I digress...)

The serrations are perfect! I like the red spot on it...

It isn't a museum grade specimen, by any stretch, but the in-matrix association makes it a nice display:
