Description from the seller
~Megalodon tooth from the Miocene – North Carolina, USA
This impressive Megalodon tooth originates from the United States, where fossils like this are found directly on the seabed. This yields a wonderfully robust appearance and an authentic, “lived-in” look – pure nature.
Compared to fossils from other locations, such as Indonesia, USA teeth are known for their solid, strong roots and high degree of originality. Indonesian teeth can sometimes show sharper serrations and smoother enamel due to the sediment type in which they are found, but are also more often restored or even partially reconstructed. In the USA, restoration is far less common, so most finds – like this specimen – have remained fully authentic.
This tooth is 100% original and unrestored, with a powerful root and beautiful natural details. A special and honest piece for the serious collector who values authenticity.
Details:
Not restored or repaired – a 100% authentic fossil in its natural state
Well-preserved edges and a robust structure
Origin: North Carolina, United States
Age: Miocene epoch, ~20 million years old
The Megalodon was the largest shark to have ever lived, reaching lengths of up to 18 meters – its teeth are true icons among fossils
Shipping:
- Insured shipping with tracking
- Carefully packed with adequate protection
- Dispatch within 3 working days
Add this unique fossil to your collection and bring a powerful piece of prehistory into your home – perfect for any collector who values real, unaltered finds.
