Carcharocles megalodon - Giant White Shark

This catalog contains beautifully colored and very well preserved teeth from the extinct Giant White shark, Megalodon. Miocene age (10-15 million years ago). Note - I acquired an excellent group of the "good old days" Polk County Megs- back when the mine produced the highly sought after black & white, blue & white, and gold & white colors! Unfortunately the new mining area does not produce the same quality colors nor quantity. Another collecting site that is slowly disappearing as no outsiders can enter the mining areas.
