This piece comes with a stand included, manufactured in-house by us, ensuring a perfect display. Rest assured, this specimen is predominantly intact apart from some erosion to the root with no restorations, preserving its authenticity and connection to its origins.
The root has some erosion and consist of matrix (the host rock their found within) and therefore we would class this as having some restoration which is very common with Indonesia teeth due to the highly acidic soil in which they are found. The blade of the tooth is 100% natural with no restorations.

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.

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.
