So not too long ago, I acquired a Protoceratops tooth from a German fossil gallery. And I have been looking for more fossils of the species for comparison both in price-range and rarity, but cannot seem to find any other protoceratops fossils anywhere. Does anyone know if these teeth are ever sold online? And have I perhaps made a heck of a buy? I'm not sure if the fossils from the Gobi Desert are rare or just hard to come by, unless you live in Asia. Any information would be appreciated, thanks! (Will put up some pictures of the tooth when I get home later)

Hell Creek Theropods help wanted
Mesozoic Mike posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
Howdy folks I'm still building my collection of Hell Creek fossils. This time I'm attempting to add three new specimens, that of Anzu Wyliei, Dakotaraptor, and a Troodon. I would be very grateful to get your opinion on the following fossils. The raptor teeth are labeled as "Dromeosaur Tooth" from Hell Creek I want to know if any of them look like Dakotaraptor teeth to you. As for the other two I simply want your opinion on whether or not they are genuine fossils. Thank you Anzu claw measures approx. 15/16″ long Raptor Teeth 1 2 3 Toodon measures approx. 1/8″ Thanks again

The first two pictures I think are struthiomimus, although I'm not entirely sure if that toe bone matches up to it or not. They were found together though. The claw is about 2" long, the toe bone is about 1.25". The third and fourth pictures, I think is either struthiomimus as well, or raptor, but I don't know which. It is just under 2" long. The last picture of the tiny metatarsal or metacarpal, I have no idea.

Based on the numerous and informative posts of @Troodon, I feel pretty confident that this tooth is an Acheroraptor. It is from the Hell Creek formation, South Dakota. I saw some things that looked diagnostic and the seller provided pics that were pretty good. Anybody want to confirm the ID or present an alternative ?

7inch spinosaurus claw or 4.75inch indeterminate possibly baharaosaurus claw?
Pterygotus posted a topic in Questions & Answers
Recently, I saw a 7inch spinosaurus claw for sale and a nice 4.75inch possibly baharaosaurus claw for sale. The spinosaurus claw has repair and restoration, the possibly baharaosaurus claw has no repair or restoration. Which would you go for? First picture is of the spinosaurus. Second is of the possibly baharaosaurus.

I started collecting dinosaur fossils fairly recently and so far I have a pretty good working idea of what I have. There is one exception and I thought I would share on the Fossil Forum and see how far I can get with an ID. My guess is that it I will not get much further then unidentified theropod but it could be something completely I suppose. It does not really look like the Acheroraptor tooth I have and it is larger. It does not look like a Tyrannosaurus of any kind to me either. I will work on getting better pictures up though I did get some detailed shots of the serrations on the micro eye at work. This is my first attempt at really assessing a tooth so my language and/or wording may be not be correct. Call it the learning curve lol This is what I know It is from Hell Creek, Powder County Montana Slightly over 1/2 inch long This is what I observed Serrations are larger on one side than the other and extend further on one side. The denticles look a bit rounded to me and seem very uniform but are really quite small. I counted 5-6 per mm but I had a hard time counting them and am probably wrong lol I THINK it might be a Dromaeosaurid but I am calling it unidentified theropod for now. If you know your dino teeth and feel like giving an opinion, I would love the input. I may not know what it is but I do know that is a pretty nice tooth to have. The serrations are in great shape even though they are small and the tip is worn but not broken. I got it at a reasonable price to so regardless of what it is, I am pretty stoked !

Tooth of a velociraptorine raptor. Specifically the serrations of the tooth are typical of Saurornitholestes.

Raptor or Crocodile Claw
Dominik1922 posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
Hello I need your help again. I am thinking since few days if i should buy this " raptor" claw. But i am Not sure if its a raptor claw. The mesure is 1.9 mm And its from the Kem Kem beds, morocco. So what you think about that?

I'm 3D printing this Velociraptor's skull - https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2736627 Details are very realistic, but I didn't found any real Raptor's skull image to compare. Internet is full of replicas... Anyway, if you're going to 3D print it, consider that it is a very pain. It is badly split, and it is not very easy to 3D print: more than half of the pegs will break and some of the pieces have mesh issues. Also, I suggest to print teeth flat on the 3D printing bed, and not as the original STL. I will update the post with new images as I glue and paint it. Regards, Adriano

Hey guys, I´m from Germany and have bought this little tooth from the Hell Creek Formation in Montana. The seller described the tooth as "Dromaeosaur tooth", which belongs possible to Dakotaraptor or Acherorator. I´m not sure about the identification of this tooth and hope, that you can help me. The tooth is 1,27cm (= 1/2") in lenght. Thank you in advance and kind regards!

Seller listed this as a “raptor toe bone” and it looks like it to me as well. Found in Montana’s HCF. What do you guys think?

Hey guys, Hello I am from Germany. That's why I apologize for my bad English. This tooth (top right in the picture) I have recently screaked from the US. The tooth comes from the Hell Creek Formation (Wyoming). It was sold as a "Raptor" tooth. He is about 7mm (0,28") long. I´m not sure, to which dinosaur the tooth belongs, thats why I asked my question in this forum. I hope, that you can help me! Thank you in advance and kind regards!

Hey guys, Saw this cluster of « raptor eggs » according to seller. What do you guys think? Is it real? Composite? Restored? I have no size,location or other pics... sorry. Kind regards.

Dear fossils experts, I would like to buy a new dinosaur tooth from the Kem Kem beds; I already read (more or less 10 times!) this thread - - but I'm a bit confused and I would really appreciate your opinion about those teeth sold as "Raptor Deltadromeus agilis". Comparing the images in the @Troodon post, to me those teeth are more likely of a Dromaeosaurid or Abelisaurid indet. What do you think? Thank you for your time and have a nice day!

Real or fake raptor teeth
Sonic0627 posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
They are both about .5” and look real just want a second opinion. Thank you

Does anyone know a good example of a raptor tooth? My son has this on his wish list of fossils and the ones I have seen unfortunately may not be what they are
-
I came across this tooth and was wondering if the ID is correct as I haven't had much first hand experience with raptor teeth so far, especially Hell Creek raptors. It's being advertised as a Dakotaraptor steini tooth from the Hell Creek formation. In the description it says it has very fine serrations though I find them hard to spot in the photos as they are a little on the small side. It's pretty small. So could it be Acheroraptor instead?

Me and my 7 year old boy went looking for fossils many times. We found a claw tip and a claw mid section from two separate expeditions in two different areas within the river valley a kilometer apart. I believe we have a sickle claw tip from one hand of a dromaeosaur and a sickle claw mid section from the opposite hand. I would appreciate any additional id that could be made from these photos.
