This specimen sold this past weekend at the Buffalo Show. I have no idea how fake or real it is.

To me, it looks pretty funky...

How can someone put that out for sale without laughing? Now I wish I went to the show just to see that.

Many times I've wondered how much there is to know.

I agree completely!

I refer to the post from Boneman007 from March18th (#9):

"I was amazed how the root is reabsorbed by the incoming tooth".

This is a Globidens tooth from Khouribga with a growing (secondary) tooth; I hope this one is real and no composite (2 pics from the same specimen).

This is exactly what we should see with rooted mosasaur teeth. But, if you look at these teeth compared to all the others pictured (save the skulls), you can see how different they look.

wow...from looking at these pics, I just figured out I have a crown from a Globidens mosasaur. I'd guessed it might be the broken off top of a vert. All along I suspected it might be something more but saw nothing to prove different. Its identicle to some of the pics. A north sulphur river find.
