Real machairodus/smilodon teeth?
MohammadAAK posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
Hello all, Recently I purchased a pair of tooth from a seller who sold me real keichousaurus and another real frog fossil based on forum opinions. He says this pair is from the same animal. I don’t even know if it’s Smilodon or Machairodus, nor do I have information about locality except that it was originally from China. Main reason I’m asking the forum is that as this is my first time owning saber cat teeth I’m not sure if they are always this light? 31-33 grams per piece only. It doesn’t seem cast with the great amount of detail. And about restoration it was broken and repaired, which is what the seller also said. Best wishes

Machairodus Horribilis sabertooth cat skull
Dinobot posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
Hi this is posted online. I was hoping to get input on its authenticity. How can you tell new material and composite for older material? Stated it is from Hippareon layer Gansu province Would this be considered a good better or best specimen? Are the sabers all original? Thanks for the help! On a sperate note there are a few on a local auction house that come from China, Taiwan and Korea. Are these commonly fakes?

Laurentc posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
Hello, in your opinion, is this Machairodus skull real? He sells a lot of fossil mammal skulls and I find that a little weird. Thank you

Hi everyone! I need help! I Will have this specimens in a few weeks.The biggest one is Machairodus horibilis lower jaw, i hope so. I got these stuff from my friend from China. Also, as u can see there is a lower canine from a Cave Hyena. But it's somehow long and tick for a Hyena canine. I don't know what to think about the lower jaw, it's more similar to canids and Hyenas then to felids. And yes, at the end phalanx of ferret? If someone can help somehow to determine this, that Will help me a lot to know what's the real truth. Thanks guys again! Darko
