Hello Everyone, I'm Ryan. My brothers and I have always enjoyed walking the beaches for sharks teeth where we live, but have been getting into fossil hunting a lot more lately, and I seem to always find myself here whenever I'm scouting for new spots, or trying to get an ID on a find, and figured it was about time I signed up. I'm from North Florida but am currently living in Orlando, which puts me closer to many places like the Peace river which I'm stoked to check out. Attached are some finds from the other day in Jacksonville (ignore the necklace lol it was so my brother had a size comparison). If you know of any spots to hunt near the Orlando area let me know! Thank y'all for reading and I'm glad to be here, Have great days!

Anybody know what type of tooth this is?

Found these three things on the beach over the past couple of days From what I’ve read, the larger tooth looks like a bison tooth. Were they in this area? The shark’s tooth has a grey silver coloration. It looks like there were serrations but they are worn down. The third item may be a rock. I am curious because of the black inclusions. I would love any feedback about these items as I am fairly new at this and I always learn from this site.

Hi. Along with most of the fossils in my collection, this tooth was also found on the beach on the north end of Amelia Island, Florida. I am not having any luck in identifying the shark.

Does anyone have a legit guide for sharks teeth they would like to share? I have thousands and want to organize the mint ones. I've searched online for guides, but there are way too many that are incorrect. I'm spent on searching and would just like something 100% I live in Venice Florida if that helps. Thank you Brandon

Hello everyone, I'm a little out of my element, here. I found a tooth the other day, while rockhounding the Quaternary alluvial deposits of the North shore of Grays Harbor. The tooth is a little tumble worn. I believe it may have had serrations on the edges, but those have since worn off, leaving a worn edge. My guess is Great White, but that is a guess based on the fact I found it in Quaternary sediments. Uneducated otherwise, and maybe some hopeful thinking mixed in. Your thoughts would be appreciated. I understand that sharks teeth in Washington are almost as scarce as hens teeth.... Measurements are in mm. Thanks, Chris

I apologize for the picture...I don’t have the tooth with me to take a better one. Just curious if anyone knows what kind of shark the larger tooth belonged to? It’s 1 and 1/2 inches tall and was found on the beach at Calvert Cliffs, Maryland. It’s the only one i’ve found where the base of the tooth is as wide as the top so i’m curious what kind it is. The edges are smooth.

This is the second large shark's tooth. It was found by my father who lived in Sarasota Florida. No more information on where he found it. Was given to me upon his passing. The measurements are: 1 ½ inch (3.81 cm) wide, 2 ¼ inch (5.715 cm) long, ¼ inch (.635 cm) height. Here are some pictures as best as I could take them.

This is the first of 2 posts for 2 large shark's teeth. This one was found by myself on a shell driveway in Sarasota, Florida. Really. The dimensions are: 1 ¾ inch (4.445 cm) wide, 2 ½ inch (6.35 cm) long, height is ¾ inches (1.905 cm), tip curves up approx. ¼ inches (.635 cm), the width (from top to bottom) of the inside triangle shape is 5/16 inch (0.79375 cm). Here are some pictures as best as I can take them. Can you help me ID this tooth?

Hi guys and gals, Looking through some of my teeth from the past couple of trips and was looking to get an ID on this tooth. Is it a little meg? Thanks!

Hi everyone, I found this tooth yesterday at the beach in Wilmington, NC. I initially thought it was broken, but then saw that it was actually very warped with all of the serration remaining. After some googling I've found that they are known as pathologic teeth. If anyone has any information about pathologic teeth I would be super interested to learn more! Also would be interested to hear opinions on ID. Angy?

I visited venice Florida a few months ago found a lot of sharks teeth mostly small ones funny this is the bigger one I have found. I normally just go to the entrance everyone all ways goes to and walk the creek ethier way I'm kind of new at doing this but if there are any frequent Big brook hunters that can give me a few tips I would appreciate it thanks Kevin

Found this on a spoil bank in coastal georgia. It looks to me as though it has been worked. Small scratches /grooves on back as well. I have heard of these but never seen one. Thoughts?
