Beachcombing isn’t just about trash—it’s an exciting hunt for treasures like fossils. Molly Sampson, a 9-year-old, found a 15-million-year-old Megalodon tooth on Christmas Day, 2022, in Chesapeake Bay.
Rather than keeping it, she donated it to the Calvert Marine Museum, thrilling experts. The museum encourages beachcombers to share their finds, offering programs to identify and document fossils.
Molly’s story highlights the wonders waiting along the shore. Share her tale with fellow fossil hunters—you never know what extraordinary discovery awaits you!
