    Would love to know what kind these are and any guess on age of them.  Thinking White of some kind or Megaladon?Found on Isle of Palms beach in Charleston County South CarolinaThanks






    • First off, you need to lighten the images. There are any number of free image editors (including one or more that came with your computer) that can do that for you. I put the images on my desktop and lightened them. So what you have are 3 species from three different ages. Upper left is Carcharocles angustidens from the Oligocene, lower left is Carcharocles megalodon probably from the Miocene and the 2 on the right are Carcharodon carcharias from the Pliocene or Pleistocene.

      • Thank you so much for your identification and the Epoch. I really appreciate it. I’ll work on the image part of it because I have a lot of other specimens I’d love to have an ID on
