jgj1120789 Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 Found this in a pile of shell fragments today. I'm terrible at identifying shark's teeth. From my research online it looks most like the tooth of a hammerhead. I would like someone more seasoned to have a look! Any help is appreciated!!

jgj1120789 Posted March 26, 2017 Author Share Posted March 26, 2017 I also found this. Really can't tell if it's a rock or tooth. Anyone have an idea? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troodon Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 Looks like it may be a crown from a shark tooth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
