AMB Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 Went fossil hunting in a creek near Gainsville, Florida and found a ton of teeth but this one stands out to me from the lemons and bull sharks that make up the majority of our finds. Noticed it has a notch at the top was wondering if it could be a hammerhead? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
