Sad day to be an Otodus tooth - Rainy day on the Potomac


Atoothsatooth42

Recommended Posts

So good/bad luck today on the Potomac. Rainy, humid, but a bounty was collected regardless over 2.5 hours. Sharks teeth, ray plates, and sea glass were everywhere! Unfortunately however, not every great day is perfect, the decent sized Otodus root was a real shame šŸ˜¢. Luckily I was able to score a small Otodus in good condition, quite a few nice sand tigers, a small vert, and a few pieces of blue sea glass. Iā€™ll take it!

A nice haul!

Well, 2.5 hours of fossil hunting beats a lot of other things you could have been doing. :)

Not a bad haul at all!Ā :thumbsu:

I had to look up what ā€œsea glassā€ was. Iā€™ve only beach collected while on various vacations and donā€™t remember hearing of it. Neat little pieces, and I agree that the blue ones are the best!
