Megalodon tooth specimen from North America, dating to the Miocene–Neogene period (about 20 million years ago), not restored and in natural condition.
AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
This robust, impressive Megalodon tooth originates from the United States, where fossils like these are found directly on the seabed. This provides a beautiful, rugged appearance and an authentic, “lived-in” look – pure nature.
Compared with fossils from other sites, such as Indonesia, USA teeth are known for their solid, strong roots and a high degree of originality. Indonesian teeth can sometimes show sharper serrations and a smoother enamel due to the type of sediment in which they are found, but are also more often restored or even partially reconstructed. In the USA, restoration is much less common, which means most finds – like this specimen – have remained fully authentic.
This tooth is 100% original and unrestored, with a powerful root and fine natural details. A special and honest piece for the serious collector who values authenticity.
