PALEOCARCHARODON

This specimen has both side teeth and there has been no repair done on it.
Palaeocarcharodon
, also known as the
pygmy white shark
, is a genus of sharks in the family Cretoxyrhinidae.
Palaeocarcharodon orientalis
is the only species of this genus. These sharks lived in the Paleocene, from 62- 55 million years ago.. It is up for debate if this is an ancestor of the great white shark.
When I purchased these, I put a few in my pocket and walked around with them. Later in the day, I noticed blood running down my leg. I'm only stating this to tell you they are still sharp! All the teeth I have are about this same size, but I have heard of ones that are 3 inches
