"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 - It's unlikely you will see another Hook-Tooth this size for sale.  The price reflects not only the fact that this is well beyond what is normally considered maximum size for the species, but also the fact that this tooth is in excellent condition.  You might be able to argue that there is a little damage around the edges of the root, or that the blade tip and edges are slightly smoothed.  But truthfully, this tooth is in as nice condition as you could ever expect for such a phenomenally large specimen.
