Hi all, I have the choice between these two T. rex teeth. One is shorter and fatter, 1.5” and the other longer around 2 - 3/8”. Former less cracked and better colouration. Latter longer but has some infill. The longer one base cross-section is a compressed oval since the base is the top of the root. The tooth body is not pinched. This and the larger size makes it a T rex tooth (according to the seller) and it is from Hell Creek, Powder River Co., Montana. There is also possible wear near the apex. The shorter one is perhaps “cleaner” with no infilling and is from Hell Creek, Isabel, So. Dakota. Shorter one “cleaner”, no infill but smaller. Longer one a little longer but has some crack infill. I gather that the length just might trump the presence of infill? Which would members recommend I go for? Thankyou

Hi, according to the seller this is a 2 inch Tyrannosaurus Rex tooth from the Hell Creek Formation, Harding County, South Dakota. Really interested in your opinions, thanks.

New to this forum having just found it today! Need help ID'ing the attached tooth. It was located North of Austin texas. Never had much opportunity to be in this area, until now. Stumbled (quite literally) on this in the very muddy fringes of a small creek which might help help explain the deterioration. Cant offer much more than that but hopefully someone can provide comments or a resource for reference from the pictures. Appreciate the help! IMG_0184 (2).HEICIMG_0183 (1).HEIC

Here are some of the better finds from my digging trip in South Dakota last year. First up is what is likely an osteoderm from Ankylosaurus. This specimen is gone for research. I've got a "stupid rookie" story to go along with this if anyone is interested. Next is a section of Edmontosaurus rib with the head and part of the main. This still needs final cleaning and consolidation. I'm still debating whether to leave them separate or re-create the missing portion and join them. This is the largest and most complete ossified Edmontosaurus tail tendon I have seen. Most of the time you only find little 1 inch sections. This one is completed prep, retaining some of the matrix and a random BOB, as dug. Nice chunk of turtle shell. I have a love/hate relationship with these. This is one is large and quite thick. Most of them are extremely thin and fragile as egg shell. Still needs final prep and consolidation. Unfortunately its a covered in CA, which is making it so much harder. A very nice Tricerotops tooth that my son recovered. He is like a magnet for these large trike teeth. This is the 3rd big one he's found. All I find are tiny spitters. This is a juvenile T-Rex tooth, found beside the Ed rib. This one is gone for research. There's also a small nano-T tooth missing its tip, and a large BOB which I think could be a bit of Trike frill. No pics of those available at this moment. I'll have to add them later.

Hello! Dinosaurs are my passion since I was a child. Right now I have time and money to devote more to my passion. I would like if you could recommend some good paleontologist or seller to buy some not very large tooth, of good quality and at a reasonable price of T Rex (my favorite dinosaur). I'm from Spain, I hope that is not a problem for the shipping issue. Thank you.
