This is a 1.14" Crow Shark (Squalicorax) tooth from the Eocene aged phosphate deposits in the Oulad Abdoun Basin of Morocco The serrations are in good condition. The enamel has minor cracks but is in very good condition. Half of the root is missing and broke off along the width of the tooth rather than the thickness.

The Crow Shark was a medium sized Lamniform shark of the Paleocene that resembled a modern Great White shark in shape. It had comparatively small teeth with heavy serrations. At 3-5 meters (10-16 ft) it was much smaller than the mega sharks of the time.
