"Diffused" lighting was used for these photos, to reduce glare and better show color and detail.  The tooth's enamel will appear more glossy in person, than it does in the photos.

Description - There is a small crack on the back of the root, but it does not appear to extend beyond what you can see in the photo, and is not present on the front.  The blade has a nice tip and edges and other than the crack, the root is in great shape, with just minor surface erosion.  The color is what makes this tooth stand out.  The color blends from gray near the root, into an amber then peach at the tip.  The tip is speckled with black (manganese oxides) and there are rust colored markings on the front and back.
