NWGeoFan Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 I am looking into going to a Fossil dig (looking at the Marmarth Foundation and Paleoadventures) over the summer. I have noticed that some digs specify you have to pay for some of your finds ie T Rex teeth. Anyone have any advice on how much I should spend on T Rex tooth? Or able to give me a crash course on appraising their worth? I dont want to just shell out $$ over a tooth that isnt worth half the amount I paid.

Peat Burns Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 This outfit lets you keep your finds, so if you find a T. rex tooth, it's yours to keep (I know because I did )... PaleoProspectors 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bpgreen20 Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 My wife and I have been going out with Steve (Paleo Prospectors) for 10 years or so now. Always a good time and we’ve come home with some great finds. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RCFossils Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 I too would recommend Paleoprospectors. Steve and the guys are a lot of fun and I always find neat stuff. You can keep most of your finds. I would check out their website for more details. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpc Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 Warning: Shameless Plug Below. For those looking for more of an experience rather than keeping what you find (and I know there are plenty of you out there), I run dinosaur trips in Wyoming through the Tate Geological Museum. this will be our 14th year doing this. (Half the cost of keep your finds outings). https://www.caspercollege.edu/tate-geological-museum/events/digs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
