I just took a couple of quick photos of some of my best (in terms of size,
shape, color, condition, or any of the above) larger (and some smaller) shark
teeth. Try to overlook the quality of the photo (taken inside, with flash).
I'm not making any claims that they are museum-worthy, but I'm happy with
them,
and some here may never seen similar ones before. They are a mixture of
mostly
ones bought from local sources (river divers selling them at a flea market,
tourist stops along the South Carolina coast) and a few from Ebay.
Unfortunately, I've never been lucky enough to find anything large on my own.
The scale coin is a US half-dollar.

I did a lot of mineral shows with Alain Carion, and he always had some small
 specimens for the kids, and of course, some small shark teeth.
And it never failed, there would always be some kids asking: "how do you get
those teeth from the sharks?" I was often tempted to say: "Oh, just with a
pair of pliers!". Just to see the reactions. ;-)
