"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 - The tooth is in nice shape, but has it's share of minor damage.  The tip is smoothed and there are some very small chips in the blade edges.  Also, on the back of the tooth, there are a couple cracks due to expansion during the fossilization process.  One is between root and enamel and the other is down the center of the enamel.  The tooth is solid though and displays well.  There are two positive things though that I need to mention.  First, the tooth has a very wide blade, which is not common.  Second, there is a "pearly" depth to the color, which includes white, gray, beige and peach.
