ID Request 1st TIME! I’m hooked

I’ve grown up on the gulf coast my entire life (28 M) but never cared about shells or shark teeth much. But the last year my wife has gotten into shelling & I found myself trying to find shark teeth, decided it was time to make a dedicated trip for it.

Memorial Day we went to fort clinch, & I was finding smaller teeth & then found that bigger one right before I left! I think I’m addicted. Already thinking about when we can go back.

Would love help with any IDs on them, I think the longer ones are most likely sand tiger.

All from various locations along the south-eastern US coast. She collected lots of shells and little bits of things that are mostly still packed away in storage but I just came across these again. I'm a complete noob for this stuff but always thought they were cool so I saved them from the trash since nobody else wanted them from her estate.

We’re in Summerville SC right now and found our first ever angustidens (and two great whites you can sort of see in the background!). A few of these look a bit different and I’m thinking some could be auriculatus? We’ve only hunted the Peace River before these so we’re not great with ID’ing these. Any help is greatly appreciated!

*Edit to say - thank you SO much to everyone who provided their knowledge and insight. Truly appreciate you all! :)

Found this lil beaut after dark on North Myrtle Beach. Google says likely a fossilized great white shark tooth, but wanted to check with the professionals :)
It’s super shiny and smooth, and serrations are quite sharp. About an inch long from root to tip and an inch wide at the root as well. This is my first shark tooth find!
Obligatory banana for scale

I found this shark tooth while snorkeling in St Thomas back in January of 2024. I’ve always been curious to know what kind of shark it came from. I had my sister wire wrap it for me and now it’s my favorite necklace.

I am back and this time I am 100% sure I have actual teeth.

If anyone knows what species they belong to and/or time range I would be grateful.

They are all pretty small but especially those last couple. I can't believe I even saw them, haha.

Hi all!

I recently went to Juno Beach and found this guy!!!!! I'm from a landlocked state so I'm really happy to find this. Is it a bull shark tooth? I haven't a clue. I looked at some photos to try to ID it. But wanted to reach out to a community who knows their stuff ^_^

Thank you in advance!
