jpc Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 I have had some time to do some personal prepping this month. Here is my contribution. This is an Eocene mammal tooth from southwestern Wyoming. Collected by me in 2009, (despite what the label in the photo says), and prepped in the past few weeks. Specifically, this is a canine tooth from one of the early Eocene's largest mammals... Coryphodon. The preservation is not great, but it is a large tooth and a cool beastie. I don't have any field shots, but here is a before photo exposing it in the plaster jacket. and the final product: This tooth is part of a pretty good collection of Coryphodon bones (no skull). Included in this little jacket is an incisor, seen as the lump in front of the left side of the canine in the 'pre' photo above. And here is that little incisor all prepped. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
