Carcharodon Megalodon Shark's Tooth. Even though Carcharodon megalodon was the largest shark that ever lived growing to more than 50 feet in length, most of the teeth found are only 3-4 inches in length. This 4.66 inch long 15 million year old Carcharodon tooth was found in the muddy river waters of South Carolina. This fairly large tooth has beige colored excellent quality enamel, a dark brown root and very sharp serrations. There is a small chip on the point and some restoration on the upper left side of the dark root plus a small amount on the upper left enamel just below the root. This expert restoration matches all of the original colors very closely leaving an impressive looking tooth. Displayed on a 2 inch illusion stand. Estimated Value $300 - 400
