Description from the seller

13.5 cm length x 8.2 cm width Otodus megalodon fossilized teeth

This is very beautiful Megalodon teeth in shining jet-black color in natural state. Usually the jet-black color is produced due to presence of phosphate in the prolonged fossilization process. Jet-black colored Megalodon are rare and undoubtedly very beautiful the color has also started to appear on the root as well which makes its more cool in its own way. As evident from photos, the teeth is in excellent overall shape with nice tip, sharp serrations, root , bourlette and overall body. The teeth appear to be from upper part of the jaw of the enormous Megalodon.

May be a drop or two of glue are dropped on the open cracks of body as a precautionary measure to extend life but basically as mentioned earlier, the fossil is effectively in natural state.
