The 5.8 cm fossil tooth of the Carcharocles Megalodon has a light brown enamel with bluish colouring. The serration is still clearly recognisable and sharp in places. The darker brown root of the tooth has been naturally eroded and smoothed over the many millions of years in the sea. The tooth comes from the upper jaw of the prehistoric giant.
