Fossilized Tiger Shark Tooth, C. 50 Million Years Old, Early Eocene

Unearth a relic from Earth’s ancient oceans: a prehistoric Tiger Shark (Galeocerdo eaglesomi) fossil tooth unearthed in the Dakhla region of the Western Sahara. These teeth date back to the early Eocene epoch (approximately 48–56 million years ago), a time when early ancestors of today’s sharks ruled warm prehistoric seas.

Tiger sharks are known for their distinctive, serrated teeth, perfect for slicing through prey — and these fossils preserve that iconic feature. Each tooth exhibits the characteristic asymmetrical shape and fine serrations that made these predators so effective.

Your fossil is enclosed in a clear jar inside a 5.6" acrylic display. No two teeth are alike — each specimen is a tangible connection to a vanished world, making it an extraordinary addition to any fossil collection or educational display.
