Need better lighting.

Also, please do not use coins for a scale. (members from other countries do not know the size of them.)

Shoot. This is the first post I see after uploading a picture of a great white tooth next to a penny :doh!:

Nevertheless, it is possible to make out a possibility based on the shapes.

 

1. Carcharhinus spp. upper reqieum shark tooth, possibly bull shark?

 

2. Lower shark tooth. Too generic in shape to tell, but some possibilities include Isurus or Carcharhinus.

 

3. Tiger shark tooth? Need brighter picture.

 

4. Carcharodon plicatilis or Carcharocles spp. Need brighter picture.

 

5. Lower reqieum shark tooth? Need brighter picture.

 

Great teeth! :)

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

Sorry, but they look like ink spots to Me, can not see any detail other than overall shape.

You need better lighting.

Outdoor natural lighting usually works well :)
