Megalodon Tooth, 125gr, h 10.5cm, circa 13 mln years old

Rarity and Value

This impressive fossil tooth belonged to Otodus megalodon, the largest shark to have ever lived. At 10.5 cm in height, it represents a remarkable example of the species’ colossal dentition. Specimens of this size and weight are increasingly rare, especially those preserving enamel luster and serrated edges that reveal the raw power of this prehistoric predator.

Discovery and Period

Formed around 13 million years ago, during the Middle Miocene epoch, this tooth bears witness to an era when warm oceans teemed with marine life. Megalodon dominated these seas, preying on whales and large fish. The fossilization process replaced organic material with minerals over millions of years, transforming it into a stone relic of deep time.

Craftsmanship and Presentation

Expertly cleaned and stabilized to preserve its natural coloration and surface texture, the tooth displays striking shades of gray and beige — tones shaped by sediment and mineral content unique to its deposit. Presented as a standalone specimen, it bridges science and art, embodying both the beauty and ferocity of ancient marine life.

Human Touch

Holding this Megalodon tooth connects us directly to the world’s ancient oceans — a tangible fragment of a giant that once ruled Earth’s waters, inspiring wonder in scientists and collectors alike.
