Mosasaur tooth real?


Notidanodon

Recommended Posts

Hello I am not sure whether the entirety of this fossil is real as it was brought in Morocco where a lot of fossils are fake and I noticed the gap between the crown and the root is filled with the same stuff around the fossil. I think the crown is real but maybe the matrix and root have just been added on? Thanks

I agree.

Real crown, the rest composited from who knows what.
