10.7 cm dark polished tooth of the Megalodon

The 10.7 cm tooth of the Carcharocles Megalodon was partially polished by the diver on the crown, which gives the tooth its special charm. The sharp serrations are still visible at the transition to the tooth root. The shiny enamel is dark and gray-blue due to the polishing. The broad black bourelette is clearly visible, and the tooth root has been naturally smoothed over millions of years in the sea, revealing the nutrient deposits.
