RJB Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 My wife decided to start cleaning out our shed here where we live. I didnt know that I had fossils in there? Anyways, she brought this to me along with a lot of other stuff, but this one caught my eye. Ive seen these before, but really dont know what it is. My guess is some kind of shark tooth? I did do a bit of prep on it and it does seem to be complete. RB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
