Another Mosasaur jaw section


Recommended Posts

Being sold as part of the bottom jaw of a Mosasaur--no species mentioned. From Khourigba, Morocco.  5CM high x 10cm long x 6 cm wide.

 

To me, the jaw section seems legit bone with the photo showing the bone structure and the shattered roots of teeth, but is the whole tooth added or is it actually part of it?

 

Thanks very much.

No red flags here. The one tooth looks correct and on a composite jaw I would expect more teeth added. The fact that all other teeth are missing indicates that this is likely not tampered with.

 

So yeah, looks like the front of left and right lower jaws. Judging from the one tooth it might be Prognathodon.

Nice, thanks for taking a look. I will place an order for this.
