From the rock
We know the megalodon almost only from its teeth.
Its skeleton was made of cartilage, which hardly fossilises. Its teeth reach up to 18 centimetres.
No human has ever seen this animal alive: it died out 3.6 million years ago at the latest, and the human genus has existed for about 2.8 million years.

Why Silver Is the Smart Choice for Your Future
Silver is far more than just a shiny metal. It is a proven inflation hedge and, at the same time, a sought-after industrial raw material. While demand from the electronics, solar, and medical technology sectors continues to rise, supply remains limited. This combination makes silver an ideal building block for safeguarding your wealth.
- Tax-free gains after just one year of holding period
- High industrial demand meets limited supply
- Perfect addition to any diversified portfolio
- Physical ownership – independent of banks and digital systems
- Thousands of years of tradition as a store of value
