Kem Kem tooth repaired?
Adam86cucv posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
I was curious if this tooth has been repaired or anything weird. Seems like it might have been broken and glued back together. I'm a bit curious about the shiney look and dark speckles on it. Does it seem like they put a coating on it and the speckles are matrix or miscellaneous 'dirt'? For the price I am offered it at I know it's not going to be perfect. Just wanted to see if anyone saw any red flags or weirdness.- 7 replies

Figured I'd start a thread to post my pterosaur collection in, since they are my favorites. This first lot are all from China, Yixian Formation.

I am the very fortunate winner of the wonderful artwork by Forum member, Charlie AKA fossilized6s. Here is the Forum thread that will give a view of the artwork. ++++++A pair of "Old Devils" for AUCTION++++++ - Auctions to Benefit the Forum - The Fossil Forum Prior to this acquisition, I had purchased a pair of teeth IDed as Anhanguera sp. After winning the auction I received a third, larger tooth also attributed to that ancient flyer. The teeth came from two different dealers, both located in Spain. The info they provided was identical for all teeth. Labeled as: Anhanguera sp. Middle Cretaceous, Albian-Cenomanian Kem-Kem Basin, Tegana fm, Red Sandstone Beds Taouz, South Morocco, Sahara Desert I have mounted the teeth in small plastic "jewel boxes" and will affix them to the frame of, or display them near the drawing. My ID question is how accurate do you judge the provided ID info? Here are the teeth. The rule is mm. The small ones especially have beautiful surfaces. On the larger tooth striations may be seen toward the root aspect. All the teeth have a subtle surface "dimpling." Close examination of the photo of the smaller teeth reveals this feature somewhat. Any comments as to the veracity of the given ID will be appreciated.
