TyBoy Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 Like to see closeups of your collection. Beautiful hand claw. The raptor tooth in the rectangular case is an indeterminate Abelsaurid not a raptor. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately the handclaw is a pretty good replica I came across but I hope someday to have a real one just as nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
