Beginning of a Tooth Collection

Recommended Posts

Hey Everyone! I very recently started collecting dinosaur and shark teeth and thought I’d share with you the beginnings of a hopefully great collection like @Jaimin013‘s, who suggested I show these. Hope you enjoy!

 

Some of the teeth include: Nanotyrannus/ Trex tooth tip

Mosasur tooth

Hell Creek Raptor

Edmontasaurus

Spinosaurus

Possible Megalodon 

Other shark teeth, mako, tiger, snaggletooth, etc.

Thanks for the support guys! Any shark tooth experts know if that’s a megolodon or another extinct great white? Thanks again!:D

I think great white. Missed the cusp.

Nice collection, but I do not see any Sharktooth hill pieces.

Are you asking about this one?

It's a Meg.

Great Whites don't have the chevron where the burlette meets the enamel.

 

Correction!  It has a cusp ( visable on the left side).  So it must be an Angus or Aurie., I am not familiar with either of those two in order to say which age either are from.

Alright thanks! Great White it is.

I think @caldigger was attempting to clarify .. it has a cusp in the image on the left side.  Where about was it found ?  It resembles a C. angustidens or C. auriculatus.  Heck it could be a C. chubutensis if if was found at Lee Creek. haha

 

Cool tooth.

Cheers,

Great collection!

 

The big tooth in question is not a meg, but either an auriculatus or angusteidens (or chub like Brett pointed out). The cusp seems pretty tricky to differentiate, so it all depends on where it was found.

If you're a fossil nut from Palos Verdes, San Pedro, Redondo Beach, or Torrance, feel free to shoot me a PM!
