HoppeHunting Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 Hi all, This tooth was found of one of my recent hunts along the Calvert Cliffs in Maryland. I found it at Bayfront Park/Brownies Beach. It is approximately one cm in length, relatively flat, and has multiple worn but visible bumps of enamel that could either be large serrations of some shark tooth or cusps of a symphyseal cow shark tooth. I believe it's the latter, but also recognize that it is a rather uncommon find. If it turns out to be a cow shark symphyseal, it would be my first one! Excited to see your takes on this one. I feel somewhat confident with my standing ID, but would love some confirmation. Thanks in advance! 1 The Hunt for the Hemipristine continues! ~Hoppe hunting!~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShoreThing Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 @HoppeHunting While you should not put much weight in my thoughts it looks like a worn symphyseal cow to me. Regardless of what it is, it is an awesome find for sure! These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
