First let me just say that my wife is awesome! Secondly, today is my birthday! My before mentioned awesome wife has surprised me with the purchase of a nice Megalodon tooth! It’s my first one! I had been recently talking about wanting to check out a website that deals in meg teeth and is run by a forum member. She took the liberty to check it out herself and correspond with the owner (since she knows nothing about fossils ) Unfortunately, due to some shipping issues it hasn’t arrived yet, but it should be here in the next few days. I was too excited to wait to share! Here is a picture from the website. I’ll post my own pics of the tooth as soon as it arrives. L1: 4.21" L2: 4.10" Width: 3.07"

It's a little beat up but I wouldn't trade it for the world. -

Hello everyone, This is my first time posting on here and I’m very new to fossil collecting. I’ve just spent [money] on a fossil and I feel like I might have made a mistake because I didn’t do my research fully. The T rex tooth is from a reputable online seller. I would really appreciate everyone’s opinion as I’m still learning? Also what are your thoughts about the enamels erosion and it’s possible link to digestion? Kind regards, Dylan Macnish

Hi everyone. I found this at high tide washed up on a beach in west mersea island, Essex recently. I know that this area and up towards Walton on the Naze is London clay and forms part of the red crag formation which dates back to the Pliocene period. The tide was pushing in from East to West at the time. I’m uncertain as to what animal (presuming herbivore) it is or if the tooth is complete. could anyone identify this for me please and if so is this a fossil from around Pliocene era or just part of a fresh carcass that’s ended up in the sea. There is no agricultural grazing within the area in which any livestock could have wandered off and ended up getting onto the beach and drowning. I can only upload two photos due to data size so will try to add the rest via linked threads (any other suggestions on how to upload all 6 pics at once would be appreciated) thank you for any help you can give.

Need some help identifying this tooth I found the other day. I thought it was a horse at first but the molar pattern is a bit different and it doesn’t seem to be as wide as a horse. Any thoughts?

Hi again fellow fossil-lovers! I was fortunate enough to come across this beauty at a yard sale so no known origin of course. Ok, here's the fun part... To me, in my amateurish-style expertise, it looks like a Mastadon tooth, however, it appears WAY too white & clean in my opinion to be as old as claimed by geologic history. Can someone help me out here? Do I have a Mastadon tooth? An "Old Asian" Elephant? It's certainly not a replica, that much I know for sure. Any help would be greatly appreciated & thank you to everyone who's helped me in my previous threads. You're all an awesome bunch!

Here is another item I found in north myrtle beach! It looks like the tooth of a crocodile or toothed whale that's incomplete, but it also has the look of a claw....or could it be something else?

I found this on the east coast of Florida while walking on the beach, Is this part of a shark tooth?

Carcharodontosaurus tooth.

I bought it from online that's why I'm a bit suspicious.

Hi Received this tooth as a present a long time ago, but i never really knew which shark it was from. My guess it's a Carcharias cuspidata, but i'd like to hear someone elses opinion on it.

Hello! I have a coworker that found this tooth in the Kansas City Missouri area creek walking. It is definitely a tooth, and from my limited resources and knowledge it is definitely a deciduous tooth ( no roots) and it looks like a peccary tooth though maybe a bit large for a "baby" tooth, so the thought on deciduous mastodon?. I can get specific measurements, but it is about 2-2 1/4 inches long and about 1 1/2 inches wide. Thoughts appreciated! Bone

Does anyone know what this is? It looks like a hybodontid shark tooth and if so then can anyone determine a species? It was found at aust Cliff and measures 1cm which quite a lot larger than the hybodontid shark teeth usually found at aust.

I mainly joined this forum for answers about this tooth that was found washed up on the shore of New Smyrna Beach in Florida. I barely know anything about shark teeth and was wondering if it would be possible for someone on here to tell me the type of shark this tooth belongs to, how old it may be, and even if it is truly fossilized just from the photo.

Hi! I found this on the beach off the coast of South Carolina! I think it is an alligator tooth or at least some kind of tooth and would like some help identifying it please!

So I found this tooth sifting through all the little extras from my fossil trip to Florida, it doesn’t look like any of the other common bull sharks, lemons etc. I think it is a baby megalodon but I’m not sure, it is serrated but a little worn, it’s much wider and not as narrow/pointy as a typical bull. Thoughts?

One of my first exciting finds was a piece that looked like a tooth back in March. Turned out to likely be just a cool shaped rock. Fast forward 3 months and I finally found this today, which I believe is an actual tooth. But I'm no expert, is my identification correct?

I was offered this tooth it has serrations but it looks more mosasaur shaped. Any input is appreciated @LordTrilobite you have a decent amount of experience in dealing with mosasaur material correct?

Found this while searching for shark teeth near Jacksonville FL. I thought maybe a stingray? Any ideas? Sorry low quality pictures. The edges are strange but cant seem to get the camera to focus.

My friend’s find from Venice FL. Looks like a tooth, but what kind? Any help is appreciated. Thanks! -HT

I've got no idea what this might be. Found in Western Colorado. Parts of it look like skin(?) and other parts look like tooth(?). I doubt that's what they are, but that's what they sort of visually look like. It isn't heavy like a fossil and doesn't sound like one when you tap it on something. It weighs maybe what you expect a hard piece of plastic would weigh. The white thing in pictures 1,2, and 3 reminds me like a tooth being tapped on in how it feels (I tapped it against my own tooth as well). In picture 4, part of it broke off. It's almost like ivory(?). The only preparation I've done to it is rinsing it under water and using a soft bristle brush. Anyhow, dying to know what you guys/gals think. Thank you
