Description
From the legendary Fire Site in South Carolina, this tooth features rare orange and dark brown feathering!
The Fire Site is one of the most difficult locations to get a specimen from on the Eastern Seaboard owed to it having been a very limited exposure that stopped producing in 2024. The same minerals that caused the exciting colors of Fire Site also made the layer super acidic to the fossils found in it which resulted in roughly 70% of the megs from that location having poorly preserved roots and/or hollow cores meaning that 70% of the megs from this location have had to have restoration of some kind. With less than 450 megs ever having been found there and most already in collections.
This tooth has restoration to the tips of the root lobes which is highlighted in the last picture.
