Around mid-morning, I stumbled on this little gem lying in a shadow at the bottom of a hill of Pungo. I found my first NC megalodon a few years ago, but it was small and beaten to a pulp. Since then, I've so wanted to find a killer (just like everybody else!) to take its place in my collection. This is the one! Its not huge, but its absolutely stunning.... |

Near midday, da f0ssZ and I reached the middle of the mine where the greatest concentration of weeds are. We surmised that the plant life obscured the view of plainly exposed teeth, meaning that if you didn't walk right onto the tooth, you couldn't see it. Near a valley between two giant hills of Yorktown, a hundred yards from any water, I stumbled on a chunk of Holocene Coprolite, the size of which was incredible to behold. I would have guessed a bear left it there had there not been little wad... |

This is the best megalodon tooth I found all year. I'm still stoked about flipping it out. Jedi Master was digging in a spot and gave up to smoke a cig. I walked over a hill, saw him there, and came over to talk to him. I jumped down in the ditch and started digging where the wall had collapsed on his prior work, and within seconds, I flipped out this super hero. Its completey serrated with the tip, 98% of the bourlette is intact, and the root is whole with just a tad of pitting. They don't get ... |

I found this tooth completely exposed with the front side down in a hole I was digging a few months ago. I really wish I had brought my camera, because this tooth was almost posing for a ground shot. You just never know when a nice fossil is going to be in a chunk of dirt that is just thrown aside in a digging frenzy. Its got a great root, serrations, and color. The bourlette is about 70% intact, and the tip is pretty sharp for a land found megalodon tooth. ... |

My first Megalodon from Aurora. Its a little beat up but it counts! I dug in the Yorktown Formation on the spoil pile for over 2 hours before I found it. I pulled out so much bone while I was digging that I thought I was going to find a giant shark's tooth. I'm just glad there was something there this time. I've dug the past three trips in a row and this is the first megalodon I've found.... |

This is probably one of the top 5 teeth I've ever found. Its a killer - serrations, tip, bourlette, root, good color, its got them all. For a SC land tooth, this is a rare find indeed! I think the thing that kept this tooth so preserved was the amount of iron oxide and sand caked on the outside of this tooth. There was one chunk on the back as big as a marble. I had to grind it off, and it looked just like I was grinding a bolt. One of the wierdest things I've ever seen. You can still see the re... |

A big, beautiful, nearly perfect, white megalodon tooth. The root rules, the bourlette is fully intact, the serrations are sharp, the color is awesome! The tip kills me. In fact, I might have broken it. When I first found it, I thought my shovel hit the tip and that's what caused the break. Now that I think about it and remember what happened, though, I don't actually know that for sure. Its because of the way I dig. My shovel is always perpendicular to the plane of the layer, and when I exposed... |

This tooth was lots of things for me today - the last tooth I found, the best one I found today, the biggest one I found today. Its so awesome that my wife said it was awesome, and she normally doesn't care much about teeth. I think I'm gonna call it the prettiest megaldon tooth I've ever found. What a killer! Serrations, perfect root, magnificent coloration and marbling, a small pathology on the blade, big, thick,... I could go on and on, but I'll let the pix speak for themselves.... |

After going to this spot 3 straight days in a row I finally score this awesome meg. This is the biggest and probably the best meg in my collection right now that I've found. The root is really solid and almost perfect and the bourlette is about 96% complete. The serrations are really sharp and unfortnately I nicked the very tip serration with my shovel and only about 10 serrations are missing out of the hundreds. Has a small strip of peel on the display side thats hardly noticable other than... |

This was the last of 3 complete megalodon teeth I found this week. I didn't get a ground photo of this one because I completely flipped it out of the ground with my shovel before I even saw it.

Theres alot to say about this tooth, I mean how many white megs do you actually see like this and in such fantastic condition? If you ask me I haven't seen very many. This tooth has a just about perfect bourlette, awesome root, and just a few missing serrations keep this tooth from being almost perfect.... |

I almost missed this tooth - I was digging quickly looking for the big teeth and this one popped out unexpectedly. I narrowly missed it with the shovel, and I almost threw 10 pounds of sand on top of it before I even saw it.

An awesome meg in great shape. Nearly every serration is intact, as is the tooth and bourlette. Plus the root is in fantastic condition. The obvious reason this tooth is so cool is the huge pathology on the left side. It looks like a huge serration - a spike sticking of the edge of the tooth. One of a kind, for sure!... |

This is somewhat of a fluke meg. The day had nearly come to an end, and I hadn't found anything worthwhile yet. I stuck my shovel in the layer and just started working it. I ended up digging a trench 15 feet long, 18 inches wide, and 6 inches deep before I ran across this tooth, but it was just in time. I nearly quit digging just minutes before, but in my despiration, I kept going until the bitter end. But the end turned out to be not that bitter!

This tooth was laying at the bottom of a hill at superpit after a nice rainfall.

Its nicely serrated, it has the tip, the root is perfect, and the bourlette is all there. It’s a rare occurrence to find a tooth this nicely preserved in a reformulated layer. The coolest thing about this tooth, though is the feeding marks on the back of the tooth.... |

When I first found this tooth I was thrilled with the coloration - its one of the prettiest I've ever found. It has orange, white, red, yellow, and purple - yes purple! The only unfortunate thing was that the root was broken in numerous places. In fact, when I cleaned it, parts of it crumbled. I spent a week gluing it back together, and my painstaking efforts paid off. There are only a few visable cracks left. I think it was worth the effort.... |

I thought I was seeing things when I saw this tooth just laying there on the side of the hill. Its one of the sweetest large megs I've seen in a while. The root is killer - it even has a little character on the left root lobe where a clam attached itself and left a ring. The bourlette is fabulous - 95% complete. Plus it has great serrations. The only flaw (if you can call it that) is some feeding damage on the right edge near the tip. You can't even see it from the front, and I didn't notice it ... |

Megs are so cool. The first time I held this in my hand I was in awe. Just like the first time I hold every meg in my hand. The colors on this tooth are exquisite! White, orange, yellow, tan, there are too many to name. The serrations are still fairly sharp which is rare for land teeth. The bourlette is mostly intact, which is really surprising. And the root is even whole. I'm amazed by that because the location where this tooth came from is very acidic. Most teeth are really eaten up. There is ... |

Here is a nice little tooth that has a lot going for it. Saying that it has great color is cutting it short. Oranges, yellows, browns, etc. are all mixed together in a completely unique fashion. The root is perfect, the 60%-75% of the bourlette is intact, and the serrations are even visible.... |

My second meg of the day - and it’s a nice little one. It has all the enamel, but the serrations are worn off. Amazingly enough, however, it still has most of the bourlette. Weird, huh? The root is pretty good too, and it gives this tooth a great shape.... |

Words cannot describe the majesty of this tooth. It truly has it all! It is a king among kings in my collection. Great color! Just look at the back at the fabulous white and yellowish lightning streaks in the enamel. The root can't get much better either. Its BLUE and white! Stunningly beautiful and absolutely unique. The bourlette is 80% intact, and is also marbled blue and white with lightning streaks in it. The serrations are superb. Lastly, the blade is rippled where it meets the root. That'... |

All I can say about this tooth is WOW! It’s the first meg I have ever found of this exquisite color. Its nearly white and in relatively good shape - no major damage anywhere, nice root, visable serrations, no enamel peel. This one has a cool story - to me anyway. My brother and I went to lunch today, and we got done in like 30 minutes. I have an hour for lunch, and I knew that J of the Golden Shovel would be out at the forbidden pond digging, so we thought we would go say hi and see if they were... |

It has a pretty nice root o... |
