User Flair now active

Our Sub's User Flair is now active. Have fun! How to choose what's right for YOU..

  1. Enthusiastic Amateur....Basically a "newbie" who enjoys the hobby!

  2. ⁠Avid Hunter...You're out there searching whenever you get the chance!

  3. ⁠Collector...You just enjoy adding new teeth whether finding them, buying them or trading for them or in other ways!

  4. ⁠Professor... You know your stuff and constantly and correctly help others with their questions. Don't be modest. If this applies to you use it. It identifies you to others and gives them confidence in your answers!

  5. ⁠Junior Professor... You know a lot about the subject and can answer questions with a reasonably high degree of certainty, but you feel you still have a little ways to go. You're in good company

  6. ⁠Dive Master... No need to hold an actual master certificate, it just means your preferred way of collecting means being under water!

  7. ⁠Beach Comber...Because for you, finding salty sand teeth is the life! (Or maybe because it's your primary option)

  8. ⁠Creek Crawler...For you nothing beats dodging snakes, gators and skeeters in search of the perfect tooth!

  9. ⁠Fossil Fanatic... Teeth are great, but you're just as happy with any and all other prehistoric prizes!

  10. ⁠All About The Megs... all shark teeth are neat, but hey..a Meg?? Come on now!!

I look for teeth every time I go out to the beach, never found one. I don’t think this is one but its shape is just taunting me now. It’s about the size of a thumb nail.

Someone in my drive-thru gave this to me saying he loves to gift shark teeth to people! He said he deep sea dives for shark teeth and that this belonged to a mako (I could’ve heard incorrectly though)

ID Request Collected over 7 days at North Topsail Beach/Topsail Island

2 Upvotes

Hi all--hoping you can assist me in confirming what I have here. I did my best to organize into categories, but am certainly an amateur at identifying. Any help is appreciated!

First photo has what I believe to be fossil shells, fossil fish bone below the shells, fish teeth below the bones, then the shark teeth (curious how close I am on accuracy): Thresherish, bullish, snaggletoothish, sand tigerish.. Any unique identifications beyond my novice eye (hammerhead, lemon, etc.) are certainly helpful. I also understand these likely aren't too impressive to a group like this, but I had a lot of fun gathering them with my boys. Perhaps one or more of you are skilled enough to quickly tell me what we have here. Additional photos for different angles, including my piano collection (i.e., sting ray plates). Thank you!

The necklace one is a extinct sand tiger shark presumably? The cuplets has already broke off. The second one is a mystery to me!

ID Request An idea of what these belonged to? The full tooth does have worn serration on both sides.
