    Sold for (Inc. bp): £156

    From Carcharocles megalodon polished, showing some good enamel. 78 grams, 79 mm



    Acquired on the UK art market before 2000. Property of an Essex, UK, gentleman.

    Carcharodon megalodon is regarded as one of the largest and most powerful marine predators in vertebrate history and likely had a profound impact on structuring of the marine communities. Fossil remains indicate that this giant shark reached a length of more than 16 metres (52 ft) and also affirm that it had a cosmopolitan distribution. Scientists suggest that in life it looked like a stockier version of the great white shark, Carcharodon carcharias.
