mrieder79 Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 If there's rock, there might be bone. If there's bone, there might be teeth. If there's teeth, they might be megs. If they're megs, they might be big and beautiful. Or, sometimes, you just find a big beautiful meg in the middle of nowhere. I was forty minutes into a dive where I'd only seen a few verts and bone frags. My mind began to wander and I thought, "Wouldn't this be a nutty place to find a big- tooth!" I swear to God, ten seconds later, I saw the tip of a big meg sticking out of the sand. I told myself to chill, that it was almost certainly broken. But when I lifted the tip with an index finger, the whole thing peeled out. 5 3/4" and one of my best teeth! Also included some other recent finds. some other recent megs Luck is the most important skill of a fossil diver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FunkyMonkey Posted May 30, 2017 Share Posted May 30, 2017 Drool! We occasionally find broken pieces of Meg teeth on our local beach at Walton on the Naze, Essex, UK - but nothing even close to these beauties! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mostly from known holes although the first came from a hole we were exploring for the first time. Luck is the most important skill of a fossil diver.
