Hello friends.

It's been a while since my last post and I wanted to share with you my new acquisitions and, better yet, help me confirm the identification of these specimens.

 

 

1: The place of origin is Liaoning, China.

I appreciate the ID. They are not the best specimens, but I love these pieces.

I suspected that it might belong to a rhinoceros. Thank you very much for the confirmation!

Rhino teeth are well identified - they have very thick enamel, you have an excellent specimen Coelodonta
