Gift from Gatorboy

[capsmith]

Here are some artifacts that Gator sent me. I like them all but just love the shark tooth.Gator if you would tell me and everyone a little about the pieces, what they are and age. Again thank you very much.

That's pretty sweet. Gator knows where more sharks with cavities are. I'm wandering if he is a shark dentist. All jokes aside that is a cool gift from a cool cat.

Hey hey! Long time.. hows the hunting been? I should say that Capsmith started out by contacting me in order to send me a nutting stone as a gift on his own. He wanted nothing in return. After asking him a couple times he said he really liked my drilled shark teeth. I told him how few I have and how attatched to them I was. I wanted him to choose something else. He said "don't worry about it..its my gift to you." After receiving not only one nutting stone but two and several beautiful points and a scraper I picked out a drilled tooth and threw in a nice piece of pottery,a drilled shell bead, and a shark tooth and vertebrae all from the same woodland site as the drilled tooth. The site was a fishing camp used seasonally.

Man I would be stringing that stuff up. They are fossils right? Dumb question I know.

 

[GatorBoy]

I have one that would be considered fossil. The others are sub fossil but very mineralized.

Cool gesture! Nice artifacts.

Mine is a Zhuchengtyrannus. Yours is different. I would put it in the fossil forum for a better answer. Or I will try to ID for you later.
