Indonesia Megalodons - Top Quality
Otodus megalodon - Top Quality
A May 2020 new addition to our Megalodon teeth selection - top quality Megalodon teeth from West Java, Indonesia. As we continue to see many of our favorite Megalodon hunting sites dry up – Chile, Peru, Lee Creek, Bone Valley mines, etc., the West Java Meg teeth are a “breath of fresh air”. They offer brilliant colors and patterns, incredible serrations, and good size. Great news for the Megalodon collectors. Megalodon teeth from a new site worthy of any collection.
This catalog contains exceptional teeth from the extinct Giant White shark - Otodus megalodon. These teeth are found in limestone deposits in West Java, Indonesia. They will come in a range of colors and most teeth will exhibit some form of color patterning. They are very showy teeth with incredible serrations. Middle Miocene age (10-15 million years ago). These West Java Megalodon teeth are the real deal and they are definitely among my personal favorites. Much nicer than the Sumatran and other Indonesian Meg teeth that surfaced in the past few years.
What is special about the West Java Megs?
Color - New colors and lots of bold colors. A range of tans, golds, reds, browns, blues, and black shades. Teeth typically exhibit multiple colors and patterns. You will "Picture Megs" with dispersed colors and uniform patterns like the "Fountain design".
Bourlettes - Bourlettes are often huge for the lower and upper jaw teeth. The bourlettes will also have new bold colors and patterns that are only found with West Java Megs. The "Tiger eye" pattern is one of my favorites with altering vertical lines of gold and red. The West Java Megalodon bourlettes are very special.
Enamel - The enamel will be pristine - highest quality with little to no hydration cracks. These teeth have been buried in a limestone matrix with provides exceptional preservation of the enamel. Surfaces are like glass, much like the Caribbean Megs.
Serrations - The serrations are often perfect or near perfect with complete tip serrations. The limestone matrix preserves the serrations nicely. Note - A unique characteristic that you will see is the extraordinary distance that the serrations extend onto the root. This feature can be seen on nearly every West Java Megalodon tooth.
The West Java teeth are all hand dug by local miners. Teeth are found in hillsides, stream beds, natural cave walls, etc.; where ever the Bentang Formation outcrops. The large amount of limestone that must be dug to find one Meaglodon tooth which makes these teeth rare. Unfortunately, the large amount of required digging also means many of the teeth are struck by tools during the digging process. Also, the acidic soil conditions in this tropical environment will damage the roots. Finding a perfect tooth is very rare and highly prized.
