Megalodon-Gebiss

About-Me

My name is Philipp Mattes and I have been dealing with fossils for more than 20 years now (2000) and in particular with fossil shark teeth, especially the impressive teeth of the largest shark of all times - Carcharocles Megalodon.

It is still fascinating to me after many years what impressive size or razor sharp serrations such a tooth can have. Not to mention the colors and patterns of some teeth, which are caused by the release of the minerals in the surrounding rock. Depending on the incidence of light a different color spectacle shows up. In addition, there are new places of discovery, such as Indonesia or also the interesting exchange with other collectors.

The website Haizahn-Fossilien.de went online in 2017. On Haizahn-Fossilien.de I would like to share my enthusiasm and make it possible for you to experience this fascination yourself to hold a shark tooth in your hands that has lasted many millions of years.

I also try to find out interesting facts about the largest predator in the history of the earth and its smaller relative, the great white shark, and publish them in articles.

The offered fossils and shark teeth I get from a small circle of sellers, who are mostly collectors or divers themselves. Most of the relationship exist for quite a few years and are therefore based on a high degree of mutual trust.

I am always happy to receive your questions and suggestions. Simply use the contact form.

Best regards, Philipp Mattes
