ChonkTheDog Posted August 5 Share Posted August 5 (edited) Found this at Carolina Beach. It’s the same color and texture as another confirmed shark tooth that we found and it has a triangular shape but it’s missing that top ridge part so I’m unsure if it is a shark tooth or not. If it is, is it possible to ID the kind? Thank you! Edited August 5 by ChonkTheDog Link to post Share on other sites

SPrice Posted August 5 Share Posted August 5 Very first post... and I'd like to offer another possibility on Chonk's image. A very worn down tip of an oyster shell. Having seen his location as North Carolina and having lived there myself over 30 years with lots of beach time shelling, I have seen and found many shells just like that in various conditions. From whole, fresh broken and different stages of wear. A few times...at first glance...Oh Wow! a shark tooth! ..nope another oyster shell tip. Maybe...maybe not. 1 4 Link to post Share on other sites
Fossildude19 Posted August 5 Share Posted August 5 I agree with oyster shell hinge on this item. Not a rock. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
