This is a seriously worn tooth fragment. I can maybe make out the remnants of serrations:

Run a thumbnail along the edge I've marked to see whether I'm seeing them, or image pixelation.

The Hemipristis is very nice!

I'm not sure which one the hemipristis is but thank you :)

This one, with the gnarly serrations, is Hemipristis serra (aka "snaggletooth shark"):

Photos of the working surface will greatly speed up the identification process.

Will mean: where do you found it - town, area, river, sea, formation, etc.

Nice finds!

Bigger teeth and a small squarish one

Here some more IDs:

Left Picture: above the sanddollar could be a Carcharhinus sp., followed by a nice Hemipristis.

Right above the Hemi is a Galeocerdo sp. (cf. aduncus) (Tigershark), right below another Galeocerdo sp. (cf. cuvier).

The tall teeth are Sandtigers (Carcharias sp.)

Right pic: the large one is a broken Meg, in the upper right corner is another Galeocerdo sp.
