: : : Thanks to some help I've finally figured this thing out. (I hope)
: : That's a great looking tooth! I probably should know what it is but I don't. What kind of tooth?
: That is the second largest I have ever found. It is called Cretoxyrhina mantelli (Also known as the Ginsu Shark) By the way, thanks for the help posting a photo.
Glad I could help with the picture, sure worth seeing. I looked it up and it looks a lot like the great white. The article said that two mineralized impressions of its skin have been found with teeth but I'm guessing you already knew that. Great find!
