10.6 cm very sharp tooth of the Megalodon

The 10.6 cm long and wide tooth of Carcharocles Megalodon has shiny gray enamel with reddish coloring. The reddish color comes from embedded iron oxide. The enamel is beautifully preserved. The existing serrations are wonderfully tactile and razor-sharp. The broad black bourelette is almost completely visible. The broad black tooth root has been slightly damaged over millions of years. The tooth comes from the upper jaw of the megalodon. This can be determined by the very broad tooth root in relation to the tooth crown.
