5.5" Slant Length 4.9" Width |
A large upper posterior meg from Georgia. This tooth was examined by Dr. Gordon Hubble, and deemed to be one of the largest posterior teeth ever found. The principal teeth would have been over 7 inches. As far as quality goes, this obviously does not measure up to the "Almost Perfect" standards I typically strive for, but what can I say it was the first tooth I purchased. However, since this tooth is the reason I started collecting fossil shark's teeth, it's perfect to me. This tooth for that reason has to be on the "Best of the Best" page. |

The crown enamel is an unbelievable, glossy, mixture of tan, peach, and gray-blue, with snow white striations running all through it. There is virtually no peel on the entire tooth (both lingual and labial sides). The serrations are in almost perfect condition, with only a few slightly nicked up near the root.
