talon22 Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 Hi, I am mostly confident this is real, but before i spend a decent amount of money on a fossil, i want to check for confirmation that this is indeed real. The sellers haven't described any repair/restoration or any paint, and i think there is calcite veins. The fossil is 12cm long. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ynot Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 Looks like a good one to Me, except the skull is from the bottom and does not show much detail. Darwin said: " Man sprang from monkeys." Will Rogers said: " Some of them didn't spring far enough." My Fossil collection - My Mineral collection My favorite thread on TFF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troodon Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 Agree, looks real, 3D bones. Difficult to determine if any of the digits are painted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazyhen Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 It looks genuine to me. Typical acid washed and mechanically prepped specimen. The skull is rather ground off (compare this with the attached photo of another specimen). It is a juvenile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
