AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
~Megalodon - extracted from the Miocene – North Carolina, USA
This impressive Megalodon jaw tooth comes from the United States, where fossils like this are found directly on the seabed. This gives it a beautifully robust 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 high level 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, so most finds – like this specimen – have remained completely authentic.
This tooth is 100% original and not restored, 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 natural condition
Well-preserved edges and a robust structure
Provenance: North Carolina, United States
Age: Miocene period, about 20 million years old
The Megalodon was the largest shark that ever lived, with a length of up to 18 meters – its teeth are true icons among fossils
Shipping:
- Insured shipping with tracking
- Carefully packaged with sufficient 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 real, unadulterated finds.
