Product Details

Recovered from the Late Cretaceous Coffee Sand Formation (66-80 Mya) this exceptional fossil represents a rare double-lobed Enchodus fang with intact root, personally collected from marine deposits of the ancient Mississippi Embayment. Known as the “saber-toothed herring,” Enchodus possessed elongated predatory fangs, yet most finds are isolated single teeth. The presence of paired fang structure combined with preserved root material makes this specimen highly uncommon, indicating minimal transport and excellent natural preservation in situ. This piece has been professionally reviewed and verified by a museum paleontologist, confirming authenticity and identification. Its rarity, provenance, and condition elevate it well above typical collector-grade material, representing both a scientifically meaningful specimen and a standout display piece from a classic but underappreciated Cretaceous marine formation.
