sweeneyb Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 I went diving this morning for the first time at the Sante Fe River and after about an hour or two found a mammoth and mastadon tooth in close proximity. I was shocked when I uncovered them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaleoRon Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 Wow. You can't beat elephant teeth on your first dive. Congrats. You should get right back in there, there might be more waiting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phoenixflood Posted April 4, 2009 Share Posted April 4, 2009 :cool: Not sure what it is worth, probably not what it should be worth. I thnk on ebay they go between 50-100, sometimes more. I wouldn't take less than 50 for either. The soul of a Fossil Hunter is one that is seeking, always. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shamalama Posted April 4, 2009 Share Posted April 4, 2009 Great looking finds! Why sell them already? -Dave __________________________________________________ Geologists on the whole are inconsistent drivers. When a roadcut presents itself, they tend to lurch and weave. To them, the roadcut is a portal, a fragment of a regional story, a proscenium arch that leads their imaginations into the earth and through the surrounding terrain. - John McPheeIf I'm going to drive safely, I can't do geology. - John McPheeCheck out my Blog for more fossils I've found: http://viewsofthemahantango.blogspot.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrehistoricFlorida Posted April 4, 2009 Share Posted April 4, 2009 Both of these are partial teeth so neither is worth over $50-75. www.PrehistoricFlorida.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
