Wowbnjijdat Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 Hi guys, I was wondering is this Spinosaurid with a root real? Seller state it has some restoration. I am curious about your opinions! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TyBoy Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 Root looks very fake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Runner64 Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 Agreed, fake root. Maybe some work to the tip too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indominus rex Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 Agreed with the others, the root looks very fake. Life started in the ocean. And so did my interest in fossils. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seguidora-de-Isis Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 Sorry, but + 4 for fake root (composite). Is It real, or it's not real, that's the question! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordTrilobite Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 There's definitely some real parts in that root. But it's been smudged with stuff all over so from these photos it's kinda impossible to tell how much is fake or real.

SULLY Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 Super fake on the bottom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wowbnjijdat Posted November 8, 2018 Author Share Posted November 8, 2018 Nothing to be sorry for guys! The tooth is not mine. But I am surprised every one things it is fake because it is so different then the normal fakes (below) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wowbnjijdat Posted November 8, 2018 Author Share Posted November 8, 2018 It looks much more like these teeth from Troodon. It had clearly some restoration to the root but I am not convinced it is totally fake like every one except LordTrilobite is saying. Because of which characteristics you guys determine it is a fake?

Both the crown and bottom of the root seem real, but there's a load of filler material in between to make it longer.
