Hello friends, Full transparency here - I am inquiring about this piece from a trade dealer who I will not mention as per guidelines. They have listed the following specifications: Genus: Pachydesmoceras Ammonite. Age: Cretaceous (Cenomanian to Turonian). Origin: Taboulouart, Atlas Range, Morocco. Size: Height: 40 CM x Width (diameter): 50 CM x Depth: 11 CM I am very new to fossils and so am having a hard time verifying these claims. Is anyone able to offer an opinion as to whether this is what they says it is and if it is in the condition claimed? I have seen several other pieces that look near identical to my eyes - is anyone able to provide any insight as to specifically what to look for in a piece like this when identifying it and determining its condition? Are specimens in this size and condition rare? Thank you, Ali

Hey guys, just picked up this unidentified claw at auction, and I'm trying to identify it as either a hand or foot claw. I've done some research including browsing the forum and I'm still undecided... There is some restoration on it but my expert buddy believes it to be a hand claw... Claw Location: Taouz, South Morocco Geological Formation: Ifezouane Fm Age: Upper Cretaceous, Cenomanian stage (96 Million Years) Size: 3.7cm = 1.45 Inch After discussing this fossil with a few guys more knowledgeable than myself, including Troodon, there doesn't seem to be an identification possible. We've ruled out crocodile or pterosaur, and came to the conclusion it is indeed a Theropod Hand Claw... Any thoughts?

I have here another Carcharodontosaurus. This one is just over 3". It appears free of repairs and restorations. Anyone see any red flags? Thank you, Bellamy
