Examples of Commonly Faked Dino Eggs

The eggs look real and are described properly other that providing you a proper provenance.  A concern is that one of the eggs may be composited if that bothers you.  Difficult to be sure with photos.  An oddity is the sellers first comment on the listing due to vibrations during transportation, the fossils may crack from the original crack, so I applied a thick layer of B72 to avoid this, but if this happens, you only need to use a high concentration B72, just stick them back on.   Thats a red flag to me, what does he know that is not being communicated.  A thick layer of B72 does not harm the eggs but it does reduce the detail in the ornamentation of the eggshell.  But if the egg cracks putting eggshell back together is not a trival task.
