Hi all,

 

Today, I got a special present: my biggest meg tooth so far! And my second too (I'm kinda behind with them). With very nice serrations, this one is definitely one of the highest quality fossil shark teeth I have now. I think it's a "jet black" one. 

 

Oh, and the measurements are (longest tip to root distance): 8.3 cm (which is 3.3 inches). Not the biggest tooth, but still a nice one. 

 

Just wanted to share this beauty with you all :)

 

Best regards,  

 

Max

Happy birthday!

 

Fossils make the perfect birthday present as we get older as they are a reminder that there is always something much older than us ^_^

That's gotta be a Florida meg right there!

Thanks so much everyone!

 

@caldigger no Doren, we bought it during the Fossil Fair of Ede 2017. 

 

@Doctor Mud that sure is true!

 

@joshuajbelanger don't think so, if I remember well, I think the seller said it was found off the coast of North Carolina.

Indeed! As we say in Dutch: klein maar fijn! (= small but fine)

 

Thanks
