Big Mac boi Posted April 30, 2021 Share Posted April 30, 2021 So I found a website that claims to sell real fossils and found 2 items of my taste now but am not sure if they're real or not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fossildude19 Posted April 30, 2021 Share Posted April 30, 2021 I don't think either are real, personally. Better pictures would be needed, but, the eggshell looks quite thick, The lizard looks carved/drawn on, to me. Again, better, brighter, in focus pictures of the items would help. 1 1 Tim - VETERAN SHALE SPLITTER VFOTM --- APRIL - 2015 __________________________________________________ "In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks."

Thomas.Dodson Posted April 30, 2021 Share Posted April 30, 2021 I don't think the egg is real. The lizard looks like one of the Sinohydrosaurus/Hyphalosaurus I used to see for sale back when I purchased fossils and it might be real but I'd really like to see better pictures. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fossildude19 Posted April 30, 2021 Share Posted April 30, 2021 There appear to be (on quick inspection) different number of ribs on either side of the vertebral column. 3 Tim - VETERAN SHALE SPLITTER VFOTM --- APRIL - 2015 __________________________________________________ "In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks."

Troodon Posted April 30, 2021 Share Posted April 30, 2021 Agree does not look like a Dinosaur egg. Eggshell awfully thick. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bguild Posted May 4, 2021 Share Posted May 4, 2021 I’m not sure what’s going on with that “egg”. Not great. Agreed, I’d stay away! The Hyphalosaurus likely has some parts that are real. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JorisVV Posted May 11, 2021 Share Posted May 11, 2021 Egg is not real. It looks really off and way too thick. As @Fossildude19 said, with the ribs. Definitely pass these 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
