Walton on the Naze, Essex, UK 25th June 2017: Otodus?

[FunkyMonkey]

Hi all,

 

Spent the weekend at Walton on the Naze, Essex, dodging the rain. We only had about 15 minutes on Sunday (slept through the alarm!) before the high tide would have cut off access to the beach, however we took advantage and found a few striatolamia teeth in the shingle. Once we had decided to give up I stumbled across this beauty in the sand. I'm assuming its an Otodus obliquus tooth but any other suggestions would be gratefully received.

Love the colour of this specimen.

 

Happy hunting!

Very nice. Reminds me of the firery colors of some Peruvian chubutensis.

 

Congratulations!

Thanks for the comments and the confirmation

 

@Doctor Mud - I've posted all of my teeth finds from the last year on this forum but I'd be happy to dig them out and repost here if its easier.
