-
Yep it looks like a megalodon
-
@kristen-wochele this is not a megalodon, but actually an ancestral white shark (Carcharodon hastalis). Nice find! Would you mind adding a picture of the other side of the tooth with a coin or ruler for scale?

@mason-hintermeister hi just just posted two more pictures on this post. Thank you!

Would love to know if anyone has some positive identifications for these!
-
Top row tooth 1 possible hammer head no. 2 snaggletooth 3,4 mako 5. possible great white bottom no. 1. possible megalolamda 2. to 5. sand tiger shark. I hope this helps. I would suggest you perhaps check my findings on Google images as there are bound to be mistakes.
-
@lynette-luff thanks so much!!! I am having a hard time distinguishing between that possible mako possible great white tooth as well!!
