AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
This impressive Megalodon tooth originates from the United States, where fossils like this are found directly on the seabed. This provides a beautifully robust appearance and an authentic, “worn” look – pure nature.
Compared with fossils from other sites, 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 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 U.S., restoration is much less common, which means most finds – such as this specimen – remain fully authentic.
This tooth is 100% original and not restored, with a powerful root and lovely 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
• Provenance: North Carolina, United States
• Age: Miocene epoch, about 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
- shipping within 3 business days
Add this unique fossil to your collection and bring a powerful piece of prehistory into your home – perfect for any collector who values genuine, unvarnished finds.
