Throughout earth’s history, this entire region’s been underwater much longer than it’s been above it.   Bill Eberlein knows this better than most. After a successful career at Gulfstream ...

Collector’s Guide               . I am often asked what to look for when buying a tooth? Since the Megalodon tooth is the most collected fossil, this guide includes information on what collectors look for when purchasing one. Collectors look for different things when shopping for teeth, including condition, size, price, restoration, shape and color. CONDITION The condition of the enamel, ...

Sometimes you can’t find “perfect” teeth, they have damage or are missing tips. Fixing and polishing makes them more appealing than leaving broken. Here’s a short clip on how much you can improve teeth.If a tooth is polished or ground it will ALWAYS be noted on that particular page of the site. Most teeth are ...

If you are near Savannah, GA or heading down I-95 towards Florida, stop by our retail space in Pooler GA.  Megateeth Fossils has Megalodon teeth in a consignment shop called The Down Younder Depot.  It is located about five miles off of I-95 at exit 99 in Pooler GA. It is located in the BiLow ...

This is the 6-3/8″ Megaldon tooth that I recently found all cleaned up.  As the enamel dried it took on a bluish-gray coloring.   you can see it for sale on my site at   http://www.megateeth.com/product.php?name=t7067      

This is a huge 5 inch sperm whale tooth from a recent dive.

I did not find much on my first dive of the day but on my second dive I hit the jackpot. All of these have great serrations. Email me if you are interested in any of them.

I found this 2.5″ crocodilian tooth diving yesterday. Prehistoric Crocodilians are ancestors of the modern crocodile. Some of these prehistoric species grew to more than 30 feet in length. It is hard to imagine a 30 foot crocodile like creature when a modern 8 foot long crocodile seems monstrous.

Stunning 3.15″ bluish Pyritized Mako tooth from my dive today. Lots of messages. Nfs right now.

I cleaned the Megalodon shark tooth I found yesterday. It turned to be 6.30″ on the longer side, 6.10″ on the longer side and 4.17″ wide. The tip and serrations are amazing. I can not wait to get back out there.

6.04 in Megalodon tooth from today’s dive. The guy on Discovery was right. They are still around!!!

Bonus 5.25 in mystery Megalodon tooth from yesterday. At the end of my second dive yesterday I was planning on coming up. I started to neutralize my bouyancy when I heard a boat off in the distance approaching. I always stay down to wait for them to pass and make sure another ones not coming ...

I found this last week sometime. I had no visibility and felt the missing section on the display side blade and thought it was broken so I put it in the bag where I put the less perfect teeth. I never pulled it out until this week. I was shocked to see a really ...

6/13/2014    My nicest Megalodon tooth from today’s dive. It measures just over 5 inches long. The downside is I saw a three foot shark swimming next to the boat while I was pulling up the anchor. It reminds me that I am NOT alone down there.  I guess my Friday the 13th could have been ...

I was diving today and not finding much. Then I found a 3″ chipped Megalodon tooth. The vis. was bad but I starting looking at it the best I could and I could see it was deformed. This is one of the coolest deformed Megalodon shark teeth that I have found.
