Megalodon - Fossil tooth - 8.5 cm - 6.5 cm

Not every Megalodon tooth stands out for its size; some grab all the attention with their exceptional color. This is one such specimen. It measures 8.6 cm.

This Otodus megalodon from Sukabumi features a rare green-blue enamel that shifts from deep olive green to bluish gray depending on the light. Just above the root runs a natural golden yellow mineralization band, giving the crown a striking color gradient that you encounter only occasionally. It is this combination that makes the tooth immediately recognizable and highly prized by collectors of unusual color variants.

The crown has a powerful, almost perfectly symmetrical shape with an elegant tip. The fine serrations run neatly along both cutting edges, lending the tooth a sharp, refined appearance. The enamel has a beautiful natural luster in which the original growth lines are subtly visible, giving the fossil extra character.

The robust, gray fossilized root forms a stunning contrast with the intensely colored crown. The combination of cool gray, green-blue enamel, and the warm golden band creates a color play that is rarely as harmonious in Sukabumi specimens.

Where many Megalodon teeth impress with their size, this specimen stands out precisely because of its aesthetics. The unique color scheme, the strong contrast between crown and root, and the refined details make this not only a fossil but also a striking display piece. For collectors seeking a Megalodon with its own character and a color you don’t encounter every day, this is a particularly attractive specimen.
