greel Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 Spent Saturday in the creek with my son and some friends. I didn't find much, but my son found a great white in perfect condition. I told him I would post it here for folks to enjoy. Be careful getting too close to your monitor - these serrations could reach out and cut you! -greel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greel Posted February 10, 2009 Author Share Posted February 10, 2009 Nice tooth. Congrats! Is that tooth dark greenish in color? My poor photography skills do no justice at all to this fine tooth. I may try to retake a couple pics later. The color is a light brown - kind of like a shiny piece of whole wheat bread. The labial side is dotted with white spots near the middle of the tooth. Not his largest great white, but his best to date. He found it in the third sift of his box, only 5 minutes into the dig. I dug like a maniac all day to find just a decent great white, but didn't. It made his weekend to out-do the old man! I was very happy for him. -greel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tracer Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 wow. i mean, i can think of funny stuff to say, but no point in detracting from perhaps the best tooth i've seen since i last looked in the mirror and smiled. that's a very, very specially nice tooth. tell your kiddo some old guy in texas is extremely jealous, but happy for him anyway.
