Auriculatus Teeth
Buried Treasure Fossils offers excellent teeth from C. auriculatus, the first Giant White shark. Auriculatus teeth are noted for their triangular crown and very large side cusps which are heavily serrated. Another predecessor of the Megalodon. These teeth are from the Eocene (38 million years ago). Please note that all of these Auriculatus teeth were found in land sites around Harleyville, S.C., Kazakhstan, Morocco, Peru, etc. and exhibit the finest quality preservation. No "river polish" or artificial shine like you will see on many of the river derived Auriculatus teeth. These teeth show extraordinary preservation and detail with razor sharp serrations! If you are looking for a great C. auriculatus, please have a look! Authenticity guaranteed.
