A MEGALODON TOOTH, SOUTH CAROLINA
The 4¾-inch Carcharocles megalodon from the Langhian (16-14 million years ago) with a smooth patina.
4¾in. (12cm.)
CONDITION REPORT:
The condition of lots can vary widely and the nature of the lots sold means that they are unlikely to be in a perfect condition. Lots are sold in the condition they are in at the time of sale.
In excellent condition, slight blunting to tip, small chip to serrations which are smoothed slightly along with the rest of the patina. The enamel almost completely intact. The colour and surface of this patina make the tooth an incredibly tactile piece.
