A piece of history - Chilean tooth from Vito Bertucci, the "Megalodon Man" - Fossil tooth - Otodus (Carcharocles) megalodon - 6.15 in - 15.6 cm

ULTRA BEST of the BEST tooth you can find - A center piece for your collection and listen: This tooth is not only unique, this tooth is a special part of the megalodon collecting & searching history! Technical data: OVER 6 Inch on both sides coming from Chile with the original matrix. 6.149 inch long side, 6.091 inch short side, 4.72 inch width The former owner Mr. Lauren DeLoach, friend of Vito Bertucci the "megalodon man" who found the biggest megalidon tooth ever, made following description of the tooth when it was sold to me: UP FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION: Is a large Upper Chilean Megaladon shark tooth in it's Matrix. The providence: Jim Pendergraph brought the tooth back from Chile in the 90s (When it was legal) and sold it to Mr. Bartucci and I bought it from the famous Jaw builder for my collection back in October of 2004. Right before he died in a diving incident near Savannah Georgia. We were diving on my boat and he had a heart attack either before he ran out of air or after. No one really knows. His true friends showed up to hunt for his body that long week and he was found a week later. One small serration touch up 3/8 to 1/2 long about 2 inches up from the tip on both sides (2 places) and 1/2 X 5/8 inch color adjustment on the crown. Christian Hunt did the work. (enough said) This tooth is top shelf phenomenal and is over 6 inches on both sides and 4 3/4 wide. I would never sell this tooth but I am putting together some money for the Tucson AZ show in FebruaryTHANKS AGAIN FOR THE INTEREST AND GOOD LUCK. CHECK OUT MY FEED BACKS AND . - ---------- Now my words regarding this Special tooth: You will get here on catawiki the rare opportunity to buy a Megalodon tooth which was part of VITO BERTUCCI `s collection! You will also get all documents i have digged out about this tooth. Also one authentic paper with Mr. DeLoach signature describing and confirming the story & authentity of tooth is included! Please see the pictures and make your own investigation regarding the „megalodon man“ Vito Bertucci and the megalodon diver Lauren DeLoach. You will find a lot of information, just enter the names into the internet search. If this price is too high, please wait a little longer. In the next round, I will list more teeth, from other countries in the 6-inch range at a lower price. However, I won’t be offering this tooth here - Vito Bertucci had already held it in his hands once before - for much less than the estimated price. Private sale from my own collection - no returns. The sale takes place under exclusion of any liability for material defects.
