      Hi there @christine-kempter the picture is a little blurry! A clearer picture will help with ID! Can I ask were this was found? The location helps with ID, as well. It looks like it may be horn coral.

      all are shark teeth, but l think maybe not the bottom one. @bill-heim can take it from here to provide the species for you

      Bottom left – Snaggletooth Shark – Hemipristis curvatus, Top – Tiger Shark Galeocerdo eaglesomi, other two too damaged to ID

      Looks more like a claw you can see where it attaches to the phalanges on the end.

    • Profile picture of Leonardo Miranda

      agreed. it does not have the structure of a tooth, and is built like a claw

      This is leverite, as in leave er right there. Looks like a super badly worn hemipristis with all the enamel worn off.

      Partial bone? I found something else similar to this a while ago, except it was grey and the bump was much less prominent. I’m curious to see what this is, so I’m going to call on @daniel-park

      very hard to confirm, but it might possibly be bone.

    • Profile picture of Leonardo Miranda

      probably rock

    • Profile picture of Bill Heim
      Bill Heim replied 1 year, 11 months ago

      Looks like a root of a tooth but difficult to tell, also could be just a rock. Really not worth cataloging as there are better specimens to be found.

      Possibly bones?

    • Profile picture of Bill Heim
      Bill Heim replied 1 year, 11 months ago

      It is possible but bones should have a smooth surface. These look more like rocks or possibly bones in terrible condition.

      shark tooth, but don’t know what species. @bill-heim , it might be too damaged to identify maybe, but still tagging you in case

      I don’t know, it looks like a deformed rock and it was found in fresh water. Also I’ve never seen a sharks tooth that’s orange.

    • Profile picture of Leonardo Miranda
      Leonardo Miranda replied 1 year, 11 months ago

      @a-trilobite remember it wasn’t fresh water back then. and you can clearly see the tooth enamel. the colour might be accounted to the lighting, even though it’s nothing strange to find a tooth that colour

      @leonardo-miranda I don’t know, it’s like modern art. I don’t get it, but other people do.
