This exceptional Megalodon tooth specimen from West Java, Indonesia, showcases a remarkable blend of colors and textures, making it a striking addition to any fossil collection. The tooth features a smooth, polished enamel with a pale bluish-gray hue at the tip, transitioning to darker charcoal tones near the root. The edges display subtle earthy brown and sandy beige striations, adding depth and complexity to its appearance. The enamel surface is distinctly smooth and reflective, contrasted by the rugged, porous texture of the root, rich with fossilized bone material. Despite its age, the tooth's serrations, though somewhat worn, are discernible, reflecting its ancient maritime origins. The preservation quality is superb, with minimal surface wear and a complete structure, enhancing its authenticity and historical allure. This specimen is mounted on a display stand with a labeled plaque, offering a context that appeals to collectors. The blend of natural coloration and the visually appealing contrast between the enamel and root makes it not only a captivating display piece but also a testament to the ancient world's grandeur.

Why We Choose Not to Provide Certificate Of Authentications
Why We Choose Not to Provide Certificate Of Authentications
The value of a COA largely depends on the credibility of the issuer. There is no central agency that issues Certificates Of Authenticity for Megalodon Teeth, and a COA can be made by anyone with a printer. COAs from unknown or unverifiable sources can be less reliable. Without a reputable and recognized name behind it, a COA may not provide the assurance collectors seek.
If a COA can be easily reproduced, modified, or mass-produced, it loses its effectiveness. COAs that are simple to forge or duplicate do not provide the security and verification that a collector would need. A COA without a serial number and a photo of the tooth on the certificate to ensure a match can be made between the two adds little to no value. You should also have a way to verify this information. Instead, we choose to provide a detailed information sheet with each purchase and an authenticity guarantee. Read more below.
Our Approach to Authenticity
Our Approach to Authenticity
We source our Megalodon teeth directly from divers & miners, providing a clear chain of provenance. This direct sourcing from known locations ensures that each tooth is handled carefully from the moment it's found, guaranteeing authenticity.
Providing Detailed Information Sheets
Providing Detailed Information Sheets
Instead of a COA, we provide a detailed, framed information sheet with each megalodon tooth over $100. Teeth Under $100 still include an information sheet however it is not framed. This sheet includes comprehensive locality information and specifics about the tooth, offering a more informative and transparent background than a standard mass-produced COA.
