A Few More Potential Fakes
Lucid_Bot posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications

I'm going to a fossil expo in Sweden. I will buy mainly stuff from morocco, Lebanon, Madagascar and so on. But how do i notice and avoid fakes, Restorations and repair? Im fine with a fossil being repaired as many of the fossils from Morocco are repaired. I will mostly buy from a dealer that i have bought from many times, And hes a well known dealer. I have no worries from him as all i have bought has no fakes or restorations. But there will be other dealers that have fossils im looking for that the dealer i usually buy from does not have. And how do i know if a dealer is overpricing me also? Thanks for the tips in advance

Looks like a new set of photography techniques will assist us in determining what is associated and what was added to those drool worthy discoveries. Progressive Photonics

Today I decided to drive 75 miles to a auction that was taking place near my house, yes I consider 75 miles near my house. This auction usually runs for several hours and has various items for sale, the bulk being Native American artifacts from the area and on most occasions, fossils. I had checked the info on auction prior to deciding if I wanted to go and seeing that they had a couple large mammoth teeth, I decided to go. Unfortunately when I arrived I learned that some of the pictures that were posted were from an auction several months ago that I did not attend. There were other “so called fossils “, but as you will see from the below pics, there was nothing that I would want. If I stayed and bid, I could have won each “beer flat” for $50.00- that would be all of the fossils in the tray. They also had 2 pieces identified as Permian Trackways. The Permian was correct, since it was sandstone from the Coconino Formation, but both pieces were void of any trackways. I am not going to even comment on the Moroccan Starfish. Now for your viewing pleasure-
