Item rating 1-12 and description: Rating 16- This is a Remarkable MEGA-SHARK JAW with an Amazing 138 Large Megalodon Teeth lined with 3 rows of 24 teeth per row on the top , and 22 teeth per row on the bottom . The jaw is fabricated in fiberglass resins, following the same shape of the modern Great White Carcharodon carcharias. What an amazing piece as all teeth in front are approx 5” Long and all the others average 4” which means if you add up the total cost of the teeth it is well over the cost of the entire jaw . The jaw is actually 5.5’ tall and 6.5 ‘ wide. Remember each inch of tooth is 10 ft of this shark so this shark was about 50 Ft long. This jaw was done by a dear friend who works with top authorities in the field of shark research to oversee many of these projects, and this one took many, many months to complete. Remember also the teeth are all that is left of this creature as the jaws were cartilage and that is never found as its organic. IT takes years to find these top premium teeth also and much diving and hard work to retrieve. This shark is close to today’s Great white but size was extremely different with Jaws looking like a minnow to these creatures. This was a 50 ft eating machine and anyone who buys this can use this for an awesome display to bring crowds for miles around.
