Nice collection.

These are crow sharks not cow shark (Hexanchiformes).

Thank you @Kane @Troodon and @caldigger . Yes I used to find sharks teeth all the time but because I was not really collecting them I would just give them a way on the beach to other fossil hunters. It was Doren’s kind contributions to my collection that has made me start to appreciate them and I have now a nice draw unit to house them.  I will be keeping my finds now.:)
