Real Spinosaurus jaw ?
Brevicolis posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
Hello, I saw this Spinosaurus jaw for sale today and wondered If its real or fake. It appears to be glued or a bit reconstructed and not very well preserved, but also looks a bit off to me (texture, shape) One small tooth is still in place, and suprisingly, it looks more genuine. But lets hear what you think about it. It was found in the Kemkem beds, morocco.

Genuine Plesiosaurus skull ?
Brevicolis posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
Hello, I saw this moroccan Plesiosaurus skull for sale today and wondered If its genuine or not. Some teeth are missing which I think wouldnt if its completly fake to make it more valuebale, and the overall look is good to me, but im not an expert on moroccan fakes but if its one, its definitly better than the usual composite skulls. It was apparently found in Ben Grier, morocco.

Hello, i saw this Dinosaur tooth from morocco for sale today and wondered how high the possibilitys for it beeing a Dromeosaur tooth are. It does not look very Carch or Abeli like to me, which is a good sign i guess ? Migth be Noasaurid maybe ? I dont know, but maybe you ! (Sadly this is the only picture of it) I have made a topic on a similar one once too, heres the link to it to compare them. https://www.thefossilforum.com/topic/140729-moroccan-dromeosaur-tooth/#comment-1484146

Got this shark tooth from a rock show a couple of years ago (when I was not into fossil collecting) and seller said it was from morocco, that is all I know as far as this tooth goes. (I am not a shark tooth expert by any means, but I can tell that the root is composite and not original) Thank you for your time!

Hello, i saw this already sold theropod tooth today, which was listed as "possible Dromeosaur tooth from morocco". Was it really one ? Or just another Abeli, Carch, or Noasaur tooth ?

Well, lets see what you think this tooth belonged to.

I have decided to cash in my IRA and put the money into this rare, baby Mosasaur, I feel in the long run, with appreciation of the rare piece, I can beat the 16.78% return I had last year in the stock market. I am impressed at how robust infant mosasaurs were. They were obviously strong swimmers from birth! In the off chance, that there may be a small amount of repair; I am posting it here for opinions.

Hello everyone, I was wondering if it would be possible to prep Moroccan trilobites with my dremel 290 and ZoicPaleotech bits (and get decent results). I've been wanting to buy some unprepared specimens, but am unsure if I'd be able to do anything to them. Is there any particular matrixes or species you'd recommend? also, where would one aquire affordable, unprepared specimens? I'm not an expert fossil-prepper by any means (as you can tell by my current tools). Thanks in advance.

Hello, i saw this big Spinosaurus tooth on auction today and wondered, If the root is real and not a composed one. Obviously, a crack was filled, but thats OK for me, and everything else looks fine to me. The tooth Matches also whith the rooted one, seen in Troodon's guide. So would it be worth trying to get it, or should i stay far away from it ? Found in : Kemkem beds, morocco Sice : 12 cm

Hello, i have this tooth labeled as Elosuchus from morocco. But i am not sure if its really one, could this be Spinosaurus too ? It has clear visible stirrations, but no carina. The cross section is circular. The tip has also an interesting shape, could this be the result of permanent use ? It was found in the Kemkem beds, morocco.

Spinosaurus toe bone real ?
Brevicolis posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
Hello, i have this toe bone labeled as spinosaurus in my collection. But it seems kinda suspicious to me. Theres definitly real bone that matches the form, but some areas look like plaster or still covered whith a layer of matrix. Is it real and bad preserverd, 50/50, or a complete fake ? And is it even Spinosaurus ? Because Spinosaurus toe bones are very flat compared to this one.
