Specimen: Megalodon from the Neogene–Miocene (about 20 million years old) in natural condition, 100% authentic and not restored, originating from North America, with dimensions 10.5 cm high, 7.6 cm wide and 2 cm thick.
Description from the seller
This robust impressive Megalodon tooth originates from the United States, where fossils like this are found directly on the seabed. This creates a beautifully rugged appearance and an authentic, “lived-in” look – pure nature.
Compared with fossils from other localities, 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 smoother enamel due to the sediment type in which they are found, but are also more often repaired or even partially reconstructed. In the US, restoration is much less common, so most finds – such as this specimen – have remained fully authentic.
This tooth is 100% original and unrestored, with a powerful root and attractive natural details. A special and honest piece for the serious collector who values authenticity.
