Guest GemstoneAndFossil Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 I have two shark teeth , one I bought in a necklace the smaller one about 6 years ago in grand bend Ontario , the other was given too me as a gift from family in british Columbia . I was just wondering are they even real ? I remember thinking it could just be a racoon tooth but I honestly never knew anything about fossils or sharks in the past etc I always thought it was a gimmick but I didn't mind . So now here is some pictures sorry I have no locations or anything to help with as both were bought . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrieder79 Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 Definitely real shark teeth. The smaller looks to be sand tiger and the larger possibly a lower mako. Luck is the most important skill of a fossil diver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest GemstoneAndFossil Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 are they fossils or possibly living shark teeth ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FossilDAWG Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 They are certainly real, shark teeth are common enough in certain areas that no-one needs to fake them, except maybe (rarely) the huge Megalodon teeth. Even those are not faked so much as massively restored. Your teeth are also a bit worn and have a bit of the root missing, faked teeth would be more "perfect". They are fossils, as modern shark teeth are white. Don Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
