3.74 inch (9.5 cm) long x 2.91 inch (7.4 cm) wide Megalodon tooth from Indonesia. Broad profile 3.74 inch long x 2.91 inch wide Indonesian Megalodon tooth.

It is medium-long size Megalodon tooth in yellow coloration with broad profile & very good shine. The tooth appear to be from upper jaw of a giant Megalodon from the anterior region.

The tooth has nice yellow coloration with some dark tones but mostly its in unicoloration. The serration profile is excellent. The back of top serration is eroded and a couple of serration towards the left on the lingual side but those seems to be happened during the shark lifetime as these teeth were meant to take large prey and enormous force was involved as Megalodon was enormous and super powerful marine animal by every standard. The root of the tooth is relatively small compared to the enamel and overall body of the fossil and it is asymmetrical. The bourlette region is eroded away. Some part of root region have been restored and re-enforced by adding extra material.

The tooth also offers inside of the fossil from a small region of eroded enamel on the lingual side of the tooth. Overall, its a very nice tooth fossil of Megalodon shark for collectors.
