Elzbelz83 Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 Hi, I live near the Kent coast (UK), an area of which is good for shark-teeth hunting. I'm not so experienced with identifying anything else though! I found this today; any ideas? Thank you! Link to post Share on other sites
Fossildude19 Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 What is the size of this item? Can we get pictures of the sides, top down, bottom up as well? Preferably with a ruler of some sort, for scale. Link to post Share on other sites

Rockwood Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 Small fragment of a tooth in a bit of jaw bone ? Link to post Share on other sites
Shellseeker Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 The tooth is reminiscent of a Stingray tooth.... That is NOT to say I think it is a Stingray tooth, just that it might be from a fish using it to crush small sealife shell . Link to post Share on other sites
Elzbelz83 Posted August 21 Author Share Posted August 21 Thanks... I think they are stingray teeth. Link to post Share on other sites

Fossildude19 Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 Thanks for the additional pictures. My guess would be some sort of fish jaw section and crushing tooth, but I am unfamiliar with this item. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
