Quality of this Spinosaurus tooth?
lovanah posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
I am a total noob, this is my first fossil. Bought it just yesterday. I fell in love with Spinos long ago and when I realized I could actually purchase a tooth, I was on it. I got it at a pretty reputable store here in Tokyo that works adjecent to a science organization, so I felt quite confident buying it despite not knowing a single thing about what to look out for in terms of quality. The label says it's from Taouz, Morocco. It's 8.5cm / 3.3 inches long. I would love some feedback on whether this tooth looks restored or repaired in any way, or any overall comments on its quality. Note: the colors of the photos may be slightly oversaturated because my phone camera loves to act fancy. I tried my best! -
Real Carcharodontosaurus tooth ?
Sergiorex posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
Hello I saw this decent sized tooth and wanted to buy it, however I wanted to know if it’s real first and if there are any restorations, repairs, or if this tooth is a composition before I buy it. I don’t think it is fake, has restoration or is a composition. However I’m not sure if it has repairs. Thanks in advance.
