Specimen SS139
This is a HUGE fossil shark tooth. It is a massive Carcharocles megalodon tooth from Chile. This specimen is 6.2 inches long and almost 5 inches wide - simply a monster shark tooth! The beautiful yellow-orange coloration is fully natural. The serrations are easily seen and razor-sharp - it is extremely rare for a tooth this large to have such nice serrations. The tip is not perfect, but it is present and comes to a point. The root of the tooth is in great condition and is very thick and robust - one side even has some of the natural matrix intact. But the most impressive feature of this tooth is that it has no restoration whatsoever - this is extremely rare for a 6+ inch Chilean meg! This is an enormous unrestored Megalodon tooth from this exotic location in the Southern Hemisphere.
