4" Restored Lee Creek MegI decided to post a restored shark tooth for a few reasons. First, the blade on this Meg is great. Second, the classic Lee Creek coloration makes for an aesthetic tooth. With only some root damage, I thought this one was a good candidate for restoration.
This tooth was resotred by Doug Chaussee. I think the root work is fantastic and I have this Meg displayed in plain view on the fossil mantle. Thanks again for the great work Doug!!!
