Thanks!

Its freakin massive is what it is... hate to cross the path of w/e had that in its mouth...

Shark maybe?

Mega-mouth shark tooth.

Looks like a tooth from a great white shark - or it's ancient cousin.

Certainly looks like a shark tooth, perhaps of a megaladon or something similar.

shark tooth. rather big but found along Florida/Georgia coast often.

they come in rows and get snapped off.

worth some real money.


go find some more

Assuming that's not a plant from a practical joker onsite, that looks like it deserves a call to a university. Bryantosaurus tooth?

Looks like a megalodon tooth, they had one on Pawn Stars a while back. They made a lot of replicas sold at museums, you should have it looked at to see if it's authentic.

It was close to the bottom of a 24 foot cut on a big box store parking lot job. I doubt it was planted.
Well...it must be old as the nearest water is 5o miles away.

about a million years old . go find some more.

Looks like something that could shut down a job site.

Umm...yeah...we didn't exactly bring it to anyone's attention.

On pawn stars they said that each inch of tooth after the gum line meant around 15ft length of the shark... looks like yours is in great condition and worth over a grand...

Make a necklace out of it. It will go with your liesure suit.

The condition of yours compares very well with these...

Keep digging!!!

i love excavations!!! you never know what you will find.

i have found antique marbles, bottles, etc. in elpaso, texas we found an entire uniformed soldier buried with his rifle. effen awesome.

we shut down excavations when we find anything. you find an ancient priivy (outhouse) and we tape off the hole.

Very cool find.

Have heard of many an awesome find coming from one of those... old bottles, guns etc...

Peeping toms have been known to lerk there too.
