PaleoWilliam Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Some of your teeth are from a Megalodon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bgatt3 Posted February 26, 2015 Author Share Posted February 26, 2015 Is there any way you could clarify which ones? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaleoWilliam Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 All the bigger ones. Most of them are worn but if you want further identification ask a local fossil hunter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raggedy Man Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 You find a lot of fossils bgatt....I'm jelly. ...I'm back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bgatt3 Posted February 26, 2015 Author Share Posted February 26, 2015 I got really down due to a really personal hard loss and the doctor prescribed me to go for a walk on the beach every single day no matter what temp, weather, etc... So I just kept doing and have for over four or five years now... The things I find may be insignificant to others but I find them interesting ... I'm so curious about the bigger ones and the one in between the two biggest ones today... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NSRhunter Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 I see some nice big Megalodon teeth( bigger ones with no cusps). I also see some of the angustidens( ones with cusps), Isurus hastalis( mako), Hemiprstis, Bull, and Lemon shark teeth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bone2stone Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Dang girl you have a little bit of a whole lot there. If you are finding the tracer bullets and that titanium ring you may want to think about getting a metal detector out there as well. Pick fossils and find metallic treasures as well. The one thing about metal detecting is that it too like fossil hunting is addictive. Careful about the bullets some may still be live ammo and could be unstable. Minor impact with something in your collecting bag and bang/boom. Oh and if you are finding the worn Meg teeth there is a good chance you will haul out a magnificent specimen. It's only a matter of time. Your area is a little out of my stomping grounds. So my helping is of little consequence. Jess B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see a bunch of blanks which indicate she may be digging on or near a military base. The big worn teeth are likely megs based on their size. We find a lot of those worn fragments but just toss them back. Your best find is that one small serrated tooth with the cusps. The turtle shell fragment is really neat too assuming it is a fossil.

The turtle shell fragment is really neat too assuming it is a fossil. They are blanks I made it a habit to pick them up when my husband was deployed to see how many I could get I just kept picking them up kind of a strange habit now lol ... I'm careful because I have brought live unpredictable "things not bullets" home not knowing what they are and my husband threw a fit and told me never to touch things like that again then explained why lol... As for the bigger worn teeth I love them worn or not they are cool please keep throwing them back so teeth hoarders like me can find them !!! and the small serrated tooth between them made me do the happy dance it's the third I've found with the cusps... Oh when I find that magnificent treasure everyone will know because I'll be elated... Haven't found one in over five years yet but hope everyday!!! Any advice would be super appreciated!!!

bone2stone Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Third from the bottom "the only one" tracer. They are included within actual loads. The others are still live ammo even if they are "blanks". Jess B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cthomp50 Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Bgatt3, I'm loving your posts! It's amazing to me to see the wide variety of "treasures" you're finding. Wish I could do some beach walking myself. (landlocked in Dallas) Keep up with the amazing finds... and by the way, would love to have some of those throw backs people are talking about!

Ash Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Thought tracers still used a standard bullet, just had a phosphorous/something to light up when fired, they still shoot and are basically a standard bullet. That seems to be a part of the case, perhaps a different style to aid in feeding? *shrugs* "Faith is to believe what you do not see; the reward of this faith is to see what you believe" - Saint Augustine"Those who can not see past their own nose deserve our pity more than anything else."
