Legit Carcharodontosaurus Tooth?
Rikache posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
Hi there everyone! I've recently been acquiring different fossils to add to my collection and I came across a listing for a carcharodontosaurus tooth that really interested me. Below are a few photos of the listing advertising the carcharodontasaurus tooth. The sellers themselves are very reputable and I am in no way questioning their validity as I'm sure the tooth is a real fossil. Instead, I was wondering if anyone would be able to help me positively identify the fossil as a carcharodontosaurus tooth as I know many different teeth and fossils come from the Kem Kem Beds in Morocco. The tooth is in pretty rough condition and has been glued together as seen through the middle of the tooth laterally, though it looks to still have most of its enamel and serrations in tact. Despite these quirks, I'm still very interested in adding this tooth to my collection and I would love to know if the tooth is in fact from a carcharodontosaurus or if it is possibly from another animal of that time period. Thank you all!.thumb.JPG.3bd4a4f171664a8ab803bbb3997dad18.JPG)

What kind of fossil is this？ From the Mesozoic era in Morocco. Thank you for your help！

Hi there, we found this in Stony Mountain, Manitoba, Canada last summer (~Aug 2021) and we're hoping for an ID. We're definitely beginners but love fossil hunting in the quarry down the street, thank you for any help with the pics below!

Hi guys, Thanks for your help. This was found in an Arkansas cave, where there was a lot of bones, and a lot of Indian artifacts. The inside is porous and seems to be somewhat of a bone / calcium deposit I'm not sure. Please help me identify this. It doesn't feel like a rock at all, and there's also a big piece that looks like a vertebra, kind of crystallized, that was found with this.

Hello to all this is my first post, my friend found this tooth in his fathers basement( his father was a farmer) and it was presumably found on the property that is all I know. I thought it was a moose tooth or something like that but I am far from an expert and I would like some options.

Hello guys, wonding if you can help me identify this tooth fossil, please? It's been in the family for 70 years or so as it was given to my late father during his time spent in the Navy whilst in the Mediteranean. So we are not sure if it came from either the Eastern side or Western side. Your help will be very much appreciated From the jaw-line to the tip = 10cm Width of tooth at base = 11cm Thickness of tooth at mid-height = 3cm Weight = 870 gms

Found this yesterday at Ramanessin Brook in NJ. Not sure what this is. Some molar? A vertebrae? An interesting rock? Any ID suggestions welcome. Thanks!

Found in the NE Kansas River gravel. Completely solid in a jasper’ish looking stone. Clueless.

Hi everyone! I'm now living just outside Saskatoon and I am working with the University of Saskatchewan's Museum of Natural Sciences. The Saskatoon area is largely undescribed in paleontological literature, so I have been visiting various sites around the city in the hope of finding some fossils. I found these specimens in sediment exposed by construction excavation. I have several other bone fragments from this site, all exhibiting mineral staining, but they are likely ribs and vertebrae which are difficult to identify to the species level. The first is clearly a mammal limb bone. I believe it to be the distal end of a tibia. It is heavily water-worn, but I believe I can still make out the impressions of the double trochlea. I know that a reliable method of identifying tibias to either Perissodactyla or Artiodactyla is to observe the impressions of the double trochlea (credit to this thread for helping me with this!): I think I can make out the impressions, though I'm not sure if they are at an angle or if they truly run fore and aft. I would greatly appreciate some more input on this and some fresh eyes! I've included a (somewhat crude) rendering to help illustrate what I think I see. If it does belong to the Perissodactyla group, I can confidently assign it to Equus indet., establishing the specimen as a fossil. The second object looks and feels like a fragment of mammoth ivory. It has the distinctive bark-like outer texture and it is almost identical in most regards to confirmed fragments of mammoth tooth I have. I don't know what the dark substance is on the underside. I have no idea how something that looks so biological could be produced by a construction site, so I strongly suspect it is at least something organic. I don't know how helpful photos are in identifying mammoth tooth fragments, but if an identification is possible I would really appreciate it! If I can identify either one or both of these specimens as Pleistocene fossils, I can designate the site as a fossiliferous location and continue my work in the area with more confidence. Thank you all!

Hello, I found this strange rock while digging a post hole about three feet deep. It was found in Fairborn Ohio about a week ago. Image 3 shows white scratches from the hand auger I was using and a layer of something that appears fibrous. Images 1,0, and 4 show the other side and a deep hole and more of the fibrous covering. The stone is about as big as my hand. Could this have been a tooth? Thank you for taking a look at it!

Hi all, New here. I hope I am posting in the right section and that you guys can help me! We have spent a few days in Maryland (US) and I found this thing at the beach. I found it in an area with some fossilized shells in the sand by a muddy hill. It is pretty light and it doesn't look like the shark teeth I have seen in the past. I dont think it is a funny-shapped rock either. Is it something interesting or just an old chicken bone? Any help would be appreciated

Need some help identifying a fossil. This was found in Pennington co. South Dakota near the Indian creek basin. It was found in an area with many titanotherium fossils. I believe it is embedded in bone as well. Not sure what other info would be helpful so please ask.

I found this on the shore of Lake Michigan in Long Beach, Indiana– just south of the Michigan border. I have no clue what I am looking at. Any ideas? Thanks for your help!

My kids found this. I’m not sure if it came from my ridge in north central Kentucky, or they found it in the rock in the landscaping of my house located in the same area. We find lots of cool fossils around the property but most are relative to under water plants and animals. This one seemed to be something different. I feel very certain it’s not just a rock , lol.

Hello I picked this guy up off Micklers Beach in Florida today. I get a lot of sharks teeth but never saw one of these before. (Maybe not even a fossil at all?) Would appreciate thoughts on what it is. Thank you.
