@vperez can you help with this shark teeth ID?!

I think you are correct on your IDs. The one lacking a root looks like Mako (Isurus sp.) and the other two are some kind of requiem shark (Carcharhinus sp.)

Yup, bull/dusky for the two other ones, but the one lacking a root looks to me like it could be a broad-tooth white, Carcharodon hastalis (previously known as the giant mako Isurus hastalis). A bit hard to tell because it’s so worn, but that’s where I’d put my money on

@hunter-thurmond and @nathan-newell, any suggestions for fossil hunting in or near Virginia?
-
@sadie-mills Sure! Here are a couple of tips for you, @alley-b …
First, the geology of Virginia is broken up into 5 different provinces:

Looks like a bull/dusky shark tooth. The genus is Carcharhinus, so you can label this tooth as Carcharhinus sp.
