    Boar's tooth/tusk, I suspect. Too large for tiger claw.

    Bronwen is right, this is a tooth, not a claw :vamp:;)

    Indian, probably. Not NA anyhow, and as it's a boar, perfectly saleable.

    Hi Billy,
    I had a tigers tooth from India. Found out the gold it was mounted in was 22 karat. It was less than half of yours
    At 350 dollars it went to the foundry.

    I'd agree, boar (or warthog, same thing); not a protected species; and looks like India would be a possible origin.
