Moroccan Fossils

They look good. The mosasaur and shark tooth association is a nice piece. The Triblobite looks beautiful, but maybe a bit too beautiful..... let the trilobite experts give their opinion on that one.

Agree the mosasaur tooth is real from this view but cannot tell if it's a complete tooth from these views, no reason to expect that it is just want to be certain..  The tip looks worn.  Matrix looks good.

The Trilobite looks real but the bottom edge of the Cephalon may be restored.  Will leave this to those who know more.

I think the teeth piece looks fine, can't see any red flags from these angles anyway. 

The trilobite is mostly good, but the genal spine looks carved or added to me.

Hi, are these two fossils from Morocco genuine?  Thanks.

Hi there .. are these your images ?  I assume they are.  The only other thing that might be a little funny/restored is the left half of the cephalon.  That looks indistinct, maybe it was reconstructed. The images are not detailed enough to see.

 

If they are not your images maybe someone is trying to obfuscate a bit.

Real. But I agree that the trilobite might have some minor restoration.
