Hello everyone !
This Tyrannosaurus rex tooth measures 1 7/8 inches, has great enamel and great serration.
I wanted to ask, how much can such a tooth be worth? and I would also like to know, how big was the whole tooth? 
Can you deduce from these photos? Thank you

Sorry we don't do valuations on this forum.  Beautiful tip, one of the nicest I've seen.  Difficult to say how big but could be 4-4 5 inches

Gorgeous tooth!  Its really hard to determine what the original size was.

4 or 5 inches including root? 

Do you confirm it's from T. rex ?

No crown, that's 4 to 4.5.  It's a guess but the carinae are still going out and have not curved inward so double is possible.  Well locality and formation determine what Tyrannosaurid it is, none were shown so cannot very species.

I've seen and held this particular tooth in person. It is a beauty and definitely Tyrannosaurus rex.
