About the Peru Locality - 

Locality #1 - Excellent Great White shark teeth are found in the Pliocene Pisco Formation (approx. 3 million years ago), near Sacaco, Peru. The subject teeth are much nicer than most of the commercial teeth available exhibiting superior coloration and condition. These are beautiful teeth that are nicer than the photos depict.

Locality #2 - Well preserved early Giant White shark teeth are dug from the Miocene Caballos Formation (approx. 20 million years ago), on the West bank of Rio Ica, Peru.

Carcharocles megalodon 

This catalog contains excellent teeth from the Giant White shark - Carcharocles megaolodon. These teeth are noted for their well defined triangular crown and extra large, well defined serrations. The serrations on the Peruvian Megs are incredibly long and well defined. Some of the finest Megs that you will see with exceptional preservation and color. Miocene age. Peru produces some of the finest Megs known - however, the best are quite rare!  These teeth are extremely difficult to locate! Peru is strictly enforcing their antiquities laws and collecting, selling, and exporting all fossils in Peru is prohibited. Also, I have heard that new finds have all but ceased as the desert is slow to expose new material and it was heavily collected over the past 10 years.

Note - 1) All teeth sizes are slant height unless otherwise noted. Click on photos to enlarge.
