Own a genuine piece of prehistoric ocean history with this 2.19-inch fossil Great White shark tooth, recovered from the Savannah River area along the Georgia coast. This region is well known among fossil hunters as a source of shark teeth, including megalodon, and much of what surfaces here comes up through the Army Corps of Engineers' dredging operations that keep the Savannah harbor and shipping channel clear.
This impressive specimen represents the fossil Great White shark (Carcharodon carcharias), one of the most iconic predatory sharks still living today and a direct descendant of ancient megatooth sharks. Fossil Great White teeth are highly collectible due to their classic triangular shape, visible serrations, and important place in shark evolution.
Species: Carcharodon carcharias (Great White shark)
Size: 2.19” × 1.57”
Location: Savannah River, Georgia, USA
Geological Age: Late Miocene–Early Pliocene (~3–8 million years old)
Condition: 100% natural fossil, no repair or restoration (Authenticity Guarantee)
This fossil Great White tooth displays a well-defined triangular crown, natural enamel preservation, and visible serrations along the blade. Fossil Great White teeth from Georgia are especially popular among collectors because of their classic shape, strong display appeal, and connection to one of the ocean's most recognizable apex predators.
Teeth from the Savannah River can show attractive natural mineralization, with colors ranging from soft grays and tans to darker browns and blacks depending on the surrounding sediments. This specimen offers both strong collector appeal and educational value, making it an excellent addition to any fossil shark tooth collection.
The Savannah River area of coastal Georgia is known for producing fossil shark teeth that erode out of ancient marine deposits like the Ebenezer Formation, dating to the late Miocene and early Pliocene. During this period, coastal Georgia sat beneath shallow seas that supported a diverse shark population, and teeth shed by these sharks settled into the sediment below. Much of what collectors find today has been carried loose as float material or brought up through channel dredging, rather than dug directly out of an exposed rock layer.
Fossil shark teeth recovered from the Savannah River are prized by collectors for their natural preservation and the variety of colors they develop through fossilization. Great White teeth from this locality are especially desirable since true white shark specimens make up a much smaller share of what turns up here compared to the region's famous megalodon material, giving them added rarity for a Georgia-sourced piece.
The Great White shark (Carcharodon carcharias) is one of the most recognizable apex predators in the world today. Fossil Great White teeth provide valuable insight into the species' long evolutionary history, showing that its efficient tooth design has remained highly successful for millions of years.
These fossil teeth represent a direct connection between modern Great White sharks and their prehistoric ancestors, highlighting the long-term success of one of the ocean's most formidable hunters.

Great tooth, beautiful color
solid, not flexible ... great item with character and size and weight ... the real McCoy
Amazing fossil, as described, and communication was top notch!
Another excellent purchase! The tooth arrived exactly as described, well packaged, and in great condition. Thank you for consistently offering quality specimens. I look forward to buying from you again!
The tooth fossil is awesome. Way cooler than I thought it would be. Condition seems great. I got a stand with it that works well and looks good. This is my first fossil, but definitely will be the start of a collection.
My only critique is that the authentication card and stand placard are not of a high quality and the aesthetic is a little cheesy. That’s easily improved and that actual item is fantastic.
Indo posty! This specifically has been on my wish list and the one I got is perfect! I Love it so much. Exactly as described. Looks better in person. Exactly like the pictures. Shipped fast, packaged securely. Literally so happy and will be displaying it with pride. Thank you!
