I have two teeth I have had for a while questioning their identities. My first tooth is from south Carolina,found earlier this year, I am not sure if it is a meg or a chub on the remaining corner it appears to have a slight cusp.IMG_20220428_185316.thumb.jpg.d71a19a970bd7a862691cc5fea4fcdfa.jpgIMG_20220428_185342.thumb.jpg.754b850ce8f4b79014d6ff00a90e8460.jpgIMG_20220428_185503.thumb.jpg.4a205f3c07f7e623df997aff4a38a614.jpgThe second tooth I have had for as long as I can remember, it appears to be either a large near posterior great white or a huge bull shark tooth.IMG_20220517_180018.thumb.jpg.fbbd76d0ade7693620e09f677b1d0638.jpgIMG_20220517_180039.thumb.jpg.492c0de5790e649b91a17d733c0bc539.jpgAny help is appreciated, thank you!

I would guess chub and posterior C. carcharias, but I could be wrong

There are a number of threads that have discussed Megalodon with Cusps coming out of Florida.  Here is one of those threads... Based on size , I think your 1st tooth is a Meg

The second tooth is definitely a modern tooth from a great white shark (Carcharodon carcharias)
