Hi all, For a few months now, I occasionally go searching for shark/ray teeth in an old industrial area in Aruba. I found hundreds of smaller shark teeth (probably carcharhinus) and a handful of very cool & much larger teeth (likely otodus angustidens). This morning, I went walking the dogs there and stumbled upon a chunk of a much larger tooth! Could it be the megalodon? it could be a larger specimen of an O. Angustidens but the proportions are not quite the same… I'll let the experts judge for themselves. The (almost) complete O. Angustidens tooth in the middle is 2’1 inches (5,3 cm) long.

Hello, I found this item on a recent vacation, and I was hoping for some help in identification, since my travel partner and I disagree on what it is (rock vs. tooth). Location: Sandy beach in Aruba (Caribbean island north of Venezuela). Size: Longest dimension is about 5 cm, as shown in the photos. Photos: Front: Rear: Side: Any help is greatly appreciated!
