Real or fake ammonite
Charlotte787 posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
My parents recently came back from a trip to Montenegro, they picked up an ammonite from a local seller who told them it was from the Bay of Kotor and I’m just not 100% convinced it’s real. I’ve attached a couple pictures, any input would be much appreciated!- 3 replies

Need tips for recognizing a fake keichousaurus at a fossil fair
ziggycardon posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
Hi, next month I am going to Paleotime, a fossil fair in Belgium and I am hoping to find a Keichousaurus fossil. Now I know their are lots of fakes out there (although after doing some reading on this forum most of them I came to the understanding most of them aren’t entirely faked, just enhanced, painted and composites) And I am going to be honest, I don’t really care that much if the Keichou is a little bit enhanced of painted. But I hope to find a specimen that is at least 75 % or more authentic. So I was hoping if you guys could give me some tips as to what I should look for when I examine a specimen I hope to buy, cause since I will buy it at the fair, I won’t be able to post picture here during the process. I know that these are some of the thing I already have to look for to enhance the chance of getting an authentic one · Missing bones · Broken bones · Strange or akward poses · Imperfections (fake always try to be as beautiful and perfect as possible) · Calcite cracks running through the skeleton · Looking for detailing in the skull like teeth and obvious skull fragments · Looking for paint with a magnifying glass · Taking a picture and doing a negative to see paint mischief · Looking for 3D relief on the specimen These are the things I know of the look for, but does anyone else have some tips for me on how to recognize it’s a genuine of faked piece. I will also be taking my LED Mini microscope 60x for on the phone with me for closer examination. Thanks in advance!- 12 replies
