French Variraptor claw?!


Goldkaiser

Hi I’ve seen this claw for sale and is listed as coming from France and belonging to a theropod dinosaur known as Variraptor.

 

Does this look like a theropod dinosaur claw to anyone else?

Not sure what you have,  not seeing a dinosaur claw or anything dinosaurian.  The enamel covering & pitting on the sides reminds me of a Crustacean.  Just curious was there a locality provided?

Yes there is - I haven’t purchased yet as it didn’t look too much like other claws I’ve seen - seller lists is as found in Var, Fox Amphoux. Not sure where that is
