This Authentic Paleocene Shark Tooth Fossil belonged to Otodus obliquus, one of the giant sharks that ruled Earth’s ancient oceans shortly after the dinosaurs disappeared. Dating back approximately 60 to 45 million years, this fossil is a remarkable piece of prehistoric marine history.
Recovered from Morocco’s fossil-rich Oulad Abdoun Basin, this authentic shark tooth fossil has been naturally preserved for millions of years. Its classic triangular shape and fossilised root make it a fascinating specimen for collectors and fossil enthusiasts alike.
Ideal for beginner and intermediate collectors, this prehistoric shark tooth also makes an unforgettable gift for anyone fascinated by sharks, fossils, or ancient life.
