12.2 cm polished massive tooth of megalodon

The 12.2 cm polished tooth appears very massive and shows many different colors thanks to the polishing.

Shark teeth are polished if they show damage when found, such as a blunt tip, severely worn serrations or chipping in the enamel, the top layer. Polishing succeeds in revealing the unique colorations and structures that the surrounding rock and the minerals it contains have given off in the fossilization process. Depending on the type and strength of light incidence, different fascinating color shades and patterns can be seen.
