snaggle Posted September 23, 2009 Author Share Posted September 23, 2009 I don't see anything. No picture. How did you see it? 25 years of marriage and a patient guy walking the beach with me.

snaggle Posted October 4, 2009 Author Share Posted October 4, 2009 It IS a beautiful tooth. I have a smaller one, whiter than this and about 1/2 the size. Most of the teeth we find are grey, light brown, taupe, or reddish in color. Not a lot of titanium in the deposit? I have some teeth from eastern NC and they are uniformly grey, from top to bottom, with no variation. Happy hunting. Anne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
