Miocene_Mason Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 AKA Ginsu shark “...whilst this planet has gone cycling on according to the fixed law of gravity, from so simple a beginning endless forms most beautiful and most wonderful have been and are being evolved.” ~ Charles Darwin Happy hunting, Mason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Macrophyseter Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 I agree. An anterior Cretoxyrhina mantelli tooth, I think (lower?). Cretoxyrhina (Common name Ginsu Sharks) is one of the most iconic Cretaceous sharks and their teeth are quite sought after. A very great find. Nice job! If you're a fossil nut from Palos Verdes, San Pedro, Redondo Beach, or Torrance, feel free to shoot me a PM! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
