pilfro Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 I got this at goodwill for 5 dollars, I have no idea what animal it comes from, and/or if its real or a fake. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troodon Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 (edited) Welcome to the forum It's a Trilobite from morocco. Someone will provide you a name, my guess Cambropallas telesto, I believe it's one that is faked quite often and this one looks fake.

LordTrilobite Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 I think maybe around 30 to 40% is real. It's definitely been "enchanced" with fake parts. Typical Cambropallas telesto. Olof Moleman AKA Lord Trilobite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troodon Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 Agreed the center may have some real sections Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReeseF Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 Although it is heavily composited, the trilobite makes an excellent display piece at a great price Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhw Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 Generally these are always heavily restored. On the upside $5 is a great price! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
