Beach Find, Another Tooth


JonUte

Recommended Posts

Please help identifying this tooth.  Unfortunately, I went past my phone’s photo capabilities but I hope the shape and serrated edge give some clue.  The tooth is 1.3” long.

I’m not sure this is identifiable due to its condition. To me it has the shape of a very worn lower snaggle tooth shark, Hemipristis serra.

That’s what I would say too, but the tooth is so poorly preserved and not whole, and the blurred photos...

Thanks for your time and insight.  It will remain unidentified and get tossed into the scrap box. 🙂

If you can provide clear pictures then the members on the forum could identify it.

I’ll do my best but my phone’s camera isn’t that good.

My phone doesn't have the best camera, but editing can make a huge difference.  Also, there are a lot of tips on the forum for how to create a set-up for taking fossil photos.

My favorite things about fossil hunting: getting out of my own head, getting into nature and, if I’m lucky, finding some cool souvenirs.
