{"product_id":"4-9-16-inch-fossil-megalodon-tooth-polished-good-serration-dark-blade","title":"4 9\/16 Inch Fossil Megalodon Tooth | Polished | Good Serration | Dark Blade","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis 4 9\/16 inch fossilized Megalodon shark tooth is a large, visually commanding specimen that has been professionally polished to bring out the full depth of its natural enamel. The blade is deep dark gray and charcoal with subtle earthy red tones that surface in certain light, adding warmth to an otherwise dramatically dark tooth. The high-gloss surface sharpens every vertical enamel line into crisp definition and gives this specimen a presence that photographs well and looks even better in person.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe serration on this tooth is good and sharp along both cutting edges of the blade, intact and well defined at nearly 4 and a half inches of tooth length. Finding sharp intact serration at this size on a polished specimen is a genuine find. The tip is intact. The shoulders are wide and full. This is a tooth with size, serration, and surface quality all working together.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe root is wide, heavily textured, and dark charcoal gray with the dense porous character that builds through millions of years of natural mineral exchange. The contrast between the rough matte root and the high-gloss polished blade below it gives this tooth a layered visual depth that rewards close inspection from every angle. The polish enhances the natural appearance of the enamel only. No material has been added, no blade reconstructed, and the tip is fully intact and original.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEvery fossil is one of a kind.
