Here is a beautiful Carcharocles megalodon tooth from the Miocene of Florida that we recently acquired from a major shark tooth collection. Megalodon teeth from Florida are becoming very difficult to obtain. This tooth has a very solid root. The sharp serrations of the tooth are well displayed, and the very tip of the tooth is nicely intact - the root, serrations, and tip are practically perfect. The shiny enamel of the tooth is also well preserved - the blue-green enamel contrasts wonderfully with the off-white root, making for a stunning display. This is a very collectible shark tooth from Florida.
