Dracarys Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 Just got back my online purchased T Rex tooth. Bought it last month and then sent it off to my prepper to do some minimal clean up/work. It's back and so excited for you all to see! The tooth is 3.6 inches and is a shed maxillary tooth with a small piece of the root. It has great serrations and I especially love the worn tip. This tooth did some work! The person selling it obtained it from Hell Creek but thought it was a BIG nanotyrannus tooth. I paid a premium for a nano tooth but definitely cheap since it turned out to be Rex. I told him it was Rex after I received it and he was happy nonetheless. Special thanks to @Troodon for the advice given. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Troodon Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 I bought mine on online under 3D jewelry display cases. I dont recall the sizes since some come with a horizontal mount others at a diagional. You dont want the edges to close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abstraktum Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 For a very, very brief fraction of a second I thought you where referring to a tooth. And I was like "What?" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
