Thanks and nope on the miniature alien spacecraft but haven't really tried. Its pretty cool. If the Tucson show happens I plan to show a few paleontologists who attend, they may have a clue. Will post it if I find out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a cool claw, thanks..I will do some of the cleaning on these type of bones and minor crack fill but when it comes to key repairs like the claw or minor resto I leave it to the pro's. I know what my limitations are. She is great, started working at the Black Hills Institute a long time ago, went private and I have been using them for the past 25 years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a collector of dino bones but have always wanted to help on a dig (and maybe have a self collected piece) Did you ever figure this little one out? I found one that looks a lot like this little vert this summer. I have not IDed it. I will try to post a photo this evening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

siteseer Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 One time in the early 90's, I prospected some private property with the permission of the landowner in McCone County, MT. Not only did I not find a juvenile hadrosaur jaw, nor a T. rex tooth, nor a nice vertebra, I found absolutely nothing. It has happened before in another state in rocks of more recent age.
