Hello! I'm a new member and I discovered this forum recently. I've already learned so much browsing threads. I'm not sure if it'll be possible, but I was hoping that I could get some help identifying a section of fossil scapula that I came across and was thinking of purchasing. The seller doesn't have much information on it besides it being a Hell Creek find in South Dakota. He thinks it may be from a tyrannosaur. Pictures attached, any thoughts would be great!

Complex neurovascular system in the dentary of Tyrannosaurus
AlexSciChannel posted a topic in Fossil News
I haven't seen anyone post about this study. It seems pretty fascinating. And it may spice up the lip conversation a bit. The problem is I don't see anyone talking about it. It was published by our friends from Japan, Soichiro Kawabe & Soki Hattori, both of whom work for Fukui Prefectural University as well as the Fukui Prefectural Dinosaur Museum. Specimen Information: The material studied, FPDM-V-9767 is a single left dentary from a Tyrannosaurus rex found in Montana. It was originally owned by commercial fossil company PaleoAdventures before the original spe-

I recently saw this 2” tooth labelled as Tyrannosaurus rex from the javelina formation in Texas. How does it look? I am under the impression that this is very rare so please correct me if I’m wrong.

I was wondering if members with experience might give their opinion of this vertebra and to which dinosaur does it belong? I'm about to buy it. Location: North America, Montana, Powder River, Hell Creek Formation. Dimensions: 15.2 cm x 11.4 cm

Only other info I know is it's supposedly from Liberty County, Judith River Formation. About 2" long. Doesn't look like a carch tooth so I'm hoping it's actually T-rex.

This tooth is Tyrannosauridae tooth from china! I think it's Qianzhousaurus or bigger tyrannosaurid(Tarbosaurus or Zhuchengtyrannus). Size 3.1 inches. Very rare and big size. Discovered area : Nanxiong Formation, Jiangxi Province, China

Juvenile Tyrannosaurus rex tooth from Hell Creek?
TeethCollector posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
I saw a Juvenile Tyrannosaurus rex tooth (or Nanotyrannus) with really good price.. Seller told that this is from Hell Creek formation, Garfield County, Montana. I can't find any oddity or fabrication... but I want to hear everyone's opinion since the price is too good to be true. -
Two Tyrannosaurid teeth that I ordered early this week has arrived. This is the first tooth that I want to show, which is a tooth of a juvenile Tyrannosaurus rex (or Nanotyrannus). Since I personally believe that the Nanotyrannus is an invalid genus, I think this is a juvenile Tyrannosaurus rex tooth. For those who do not agree, this is a Nanotyrannus tooth. This tooth is from Hell Creek formation of Garfield Co. Montana. This is an 1-3/8 inch, and has some chips and scratches at the labial side, but I think this is still a great tooth.

These are all found in what I believe is the scollard formation at roughly the same elevation. The black one is what appears the least "Rex-like" to me. @Troodon

Tyrannosaurs likely hunted in packs rather than heading out solo

A new "T-Rex" tooth just showed up on our favorite site. It is not a Tyrannosaurus rex tooth however but a more common and far cheaper Carch tooth. We know this because of its more blade-like morphology, its slender profile, its shape, its smaller denticles and the sand on the base I already notice multiple bids on it and I have no doubt the price would escalate as many hopeful collectors would try their hands on getting a cheap T-Rex tooth for themselves. For anyone looking to buy a true T. rex tooth, there are several factors to take note of: 1) Thi

I obtained a nice Tyrannosaurus Rex tooth from the Lance Creek Formation of Wyoming. It was a good opportunity to try my hand at restoration. The tooth was around 80% complete, with some of the root missing and a dent near the tip. I only wanted to restore the latter part. Pretty good job, I think.

From the album: Dinosaurs
Species: Tyrannosaurus rex Age: Cretaceous (Maastrichtian), c. 66 million years ago Location: Hell Creek Formation, Montana, United States Quite small tooth fragment of a juvenile specimen (classically referred to Nanotyrannus, now no longer recognized as a valid genus), but serrations are preserved. Identifiable down to the genus and species level since Hell Creek did not have any tyrannosaurids other than Tyrannosaurus rex. -
Hello! I'm a new member (but not one that's likely to become a stranger). I'm eager to get any information/predictions you can offer on this tooth from the Powder River formation in Montana. Some of the areas I've been digging into thus far are: · Ballpark age/maturity/size of animal · Area/position on the jaw · Likely causes of damage (e.g., wear from tooth-to-tooth contact, wear from general contact with other animals, trauma prior to death, damage post-death) · Any repair/restoration signs observed. One of the main

Hi there! I recently purchased this online, could you please help identify this? the seller was unsure if it was a juvenile trex or a nano. It was found in Hell creek dawson County east of Glendive Montana Thank you :)

I was out yesterday doing a final hunt before the snow sets in here in Montana on the Judith River formation and found this claw along with this vertebra, no other bones around so possibly from the same animal. I have found theropod claws that are much smaller and this one is huge when compared. I searched for the tip but sadly couldn't find it. I assume because of the size it would be a tyrannosauroid but not certain. Can it be determined to be a toe claw or hand claw? Is the vertebra identifiable? @patrickhudson

is this juvenile t rex skeleton real?
Josesaurus rex posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
Hi, I have now corrected my previous post to avoid breaking the rules. I saw this recently and it actually seems too good to be true. I suspect that it may be false, as the stone that contains it does not look very natural in color, although the skeleton looks quite good. if you could comment on that it would be great. -
Sales just concluded a min ago. I definitely wasn't expecting it to reach this insanely high amount. No word yet AFAIK on whether he's going to a private collection or museum Is this the highest a dinosaur has ever been sold for? I wonder what precedence it'd set for fossils and paleontology moving forward On the pro side, it'd encourage more folks to go out there looking for fossils and possibly finding rare and important finds. On the con, more fossils might be priced out of the reach of museums

First Tyrannosaurus Rex Tooth, Scollard Formation, Alberta
dingo2 posted a topic in General Fossil Discussion
I took a trip out to the scollard formation in Alberta the other day for the first time. I've been hunting in Alberta for years now, but only recently decided to try and branch out from our old hunting grounds. I was unaware that there were T-Rex fossils in our province, but I read through a few old posts on this forum about some massive teeth being pulled out of Alberta so I decided it was worth a shot. I told my dad about it and we decided to drive out on his birthday. I ended up finding a few broken T-Rex teeth, one would have been well over 3 inches. My dad easily had the find- 10 replies

A response to Woodward et. al 2020's refutation of Nanotyrannus. Argues that specimens BMRP 2002.4.1 and BMRP 2006.4.4 fall outside the growth curve of Tyrannosaurus. https://advances.sciencemag.org/content/6/1/eaax6250/tab-e-letters

I hope I'm not breaking any TFF rules by discussing fossil sales outside the sales forum. Does anyone know what is happening with Stan the T. rex? It looks like he is being put up for auction. Why did they suddenly decide to sell him? https://www.christies.com/features/The-life-of-Stan-a-T-rex-excavated-in-1992-10872-7.aspx?sc_lang=en&PID=en_hp_carousel_1

T-rex premax tooth real?
Tacosaurus posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
Hello i am considering purchasing this T-rex tooth. The seller claims that their are no repairs with nice enamel and good serrations. with the only damage on the tooth mentioned being on the inside edge. My questions are simple is this really a tyrannosaurus rex tooth and is there any sign or repaired damage or anything that would indicate the tooth is fake etc. Information about the tooth: Age: 65 Million Years / Carter County, Montana Hell Creek Formation / Size: 2 inches long Below are the images they have provided.
