Mudskipper22 Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 So I just got this Thescelosaurus tooth. I'm worried that it isn't real or actually a Thescelosaurus. I've purchased from them before and I just want to make sure. Can I get some conformation? Also, this is my first post on the forum! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Runner64 Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 Hi, we’ll need more pictures of the fossil you have to get a more accurate idea of what you have. It also might be important to note not to call a dealer out if there is a mistake or mention where you got it. I believe this is a part of the forum rules. Welcome to the forum though .

jpc Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 whatever tooth it is, it is pretty worn. But that's OK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gigantoraptor Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 It's a very worn tooth, what makes it hard to ID. Pachycephalosaurids and Thescelosaurids have very similar teeth, but I think Thescelosaurus dentary tooth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troodon Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 Welcome to the forum. Like others have said worn teeth are very difficult to identify. A photo of the other side might help get closer to an ID. There are characteristics of Thescelosaurus but not ready to make that call. Posted this yesterday applies here but good for future purchases. For future reference 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have moved your post to the "Is it Real" forum. Also, I edited your post to remove the link to the seller. Please only post images from dealers. No Ad copy, no links. Thanks for your cooperation and understanding. Welcome again.
