RARE POSITION POSTERIOR FOSSIL GREAT WHITE SHARK TOOTH

St. Mary's River - Georgia, U.S.A.

MIOCENE to PLIOCENE PERIOD:  15 - 1.81 million years ago

Fossil Great White shark teeth from the famous St. Mary's River in Georgia, U.S.A. are highly uncommon and rare in the Miocene / Pliocene layers.  It seems that during the reign of C. megalodon, C. carcharias was keeping a low profile and for a good reason, Megalodon was much larger with just as bad an attitude if not worse.  It isn't until the Pleistocene that the fossil shark teeth of the Great White Shark are found with greater regularity.

The rarest position for fossil GREAT WHITE SHARK teeth seems to be the back, posterior teeth.  This is the first we offered in a very long time.  Don't be fooled by the smaller size, the back teeth were considerably smaller than the front anterior teeth.  The posterior Great White teeth also feature a reduced root and heavy angle of the crown to the root.  This beautiful specimen features fine complete naturally lustrous black enamel and superb serrations.  A very hard to find type fossil tooth of all types of sharks and especially, this species.  There is NO REPAIR AND NO RESTORATION.  An important and elusive type tooth for the advanced shark tooth collection.
