Rappahannock creek and beach

[Rowboater]

Some of my spots have been over-run, so avoided some of the best.  Low tide is now in the heat of the day, so breezy beach is preferable to woods.

 

A few oddities for me: couple of broken skate scutes, a dolphin tooth, a seal/ mink/ weasel tooth, two puffer plates.  Added a few rough beach teeth, along with a bunch of small gray/ requiem teeth with several miniature makos mixed in (many of you can ID them better than me).  About a dozen cow shark (favorites of mine), but nothing special; four or more upper teeth, twisted but missing most of their roots and extra points  (someone at a beach brought me a beautiful, perfect symphysial to ID.  I can be jealous too!  Have to keep plugging away.)

Nice. Pretty sure it’s a seal molar.

I hope to be able to say this one day!

@Al Dente Thanks for the ID!  I'm never sure, don't see many mammalian teeth.  @Fossildude19 thanks as always for encouraging me to post.  @Fin Lover hopefully you'll find a cow shark symphysial!  

 

Here are recent sand tiger teeth (no real big, few colorful ones).  I like the tiny ones with cusps but think they usually go through my screen.  Good ones to give to kids, encourage them to hunt, so many around and easy to see:

Nice finds, especially the seal tooth, if that's what it turns out to be.

 

Thank you for the consistent collecting reports into Rappahannock Creek.

Great finds! I especially love your cow sharks and Makos. That seal molar is pretty awesome. Congrats and thanks for sharing

One day I hope to lucky enough to find one cos shark tooth!  
 

great finds, I always love your pictures.

The seal tooth is very cool! Don't see many of those. I would encourage you to submit it for VFOTM!

[MattMapps]

Sounds like you had an interesting haul despite the challenges!

 

Those small gray teeth and cow shark finds are always fun. The dolphin tooth and seal/mink/weasel tooth are definitely intriguing....those oddities keep the hunt exciting.

 

The photo looks great ; it's always nice to see the variety in finds. Keep at it, you'll land that perfect symphysial soon!
