cowsharks Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Below is my latest Otodus from Maryland, measuring in at 1 7/8". Compared to the other couple hundred I have, this is one of the nicest and largest I have found. It was among the first teeth I found that day so it made my day quite early. Everything after that was "gravy" as they say. Daryl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimsherri Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Woo Hoo nice, nice,Otodus great pic to ,was that a bay or river find??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cowsharks Posted February 20, 2012 Author Share Posted February 20, 2012 This was actually a "land" find, "close" to the river. One of these days I'll gather up all my Otodus teeth to illustrate just how many of them are normally damaged to some degree. That's why, when you can find one this nice, and this size, it's extra special Daryl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hokiehunter Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Daryl, Congrats!! You are slaying the Potomac lately in terms of quality. That tooth is one of the nicest Otodus teeth I've seen come from the river. Very cool brown/cloudy coloration too as opposed to the solid darker blacks you usually find there. Awesome find. Hope you can keep it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
