Edisto River Megalodon Tooth

It is so rare to find megalodon teeth in the section of the Edisto river where I dive. For some reason, they are just not there in any kind of quantity. When we do find them, they are almost always destroyed, sand blasted and crushed to fragments. When I swam upon this tooth, I was utterly shocked. Not only was it complete, but it also had enamel. Voila, my first complete keeper megalodon tooth from the Edisto river.
