JorisVV Posted September 14 Share Posted September 14 Considering saving up for this tooth. 104MM in length KemKem group, Taouz Morocco Really not sure on the root Link to post Share on other sites
Tidgy's Dad Posted September 14 Share Posted September 14 Pretty sure that's fabricated. Link to post Share on other sites
Ericlin Posted September 14 Share Posted September 14 Think it’s fabricated as well but not sure Link to post Share on other sites
-Andy- Posted September 14 Share Posted September 14 Any better photos or a video? I think it's real Link to post Share on other sites
Fossildude19 Posted September 14 Share Posted September 14 Cropped, contrasted, rotated, and colors reversed: 2 Link to post Share on other sites
LordTrilobite Posted September 14 Share Posted September 14 No red flags. It looks real but the photo isn't high enough resolution to tell properly. 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Tidgy's Dad Posted September 14 Share Posted September 14 It looks much better in Tim's photos. Almost too good to be true, so I'm still suspicious but probably wrong. Slightly questioning the joint between root and crown. If it is real, it's a beauty. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites
FB003 Posted September 14 Share Posted September 14 I've seen them like that before. It's not impossible by any means just improbable. Would need much better pictures though as to me the flash on the white background is drowning out details too considering the coloring. Link to post Share on other sites
RJB Posted September 14 Share Posted September 14 Some clear close-ups would be great to make absolutely sure, but it looks good to me in these pics RB Link to post Share on other sites
trilobites_are_awesome Posted September 14 Share Posted September 14 Look's real to me. Maybe the root was fabricated? Link to post Share on other sites
Praefectus Posted September 14 Share Posted September 14 Real. No one fabricates a root with that level of attention to detail. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Guns Posted September 18 Share Posted September 18 look Real to me , Great specimen Link to post Share on other sites
Haravex Posted September 21 Share Posted September 21 This is not just real but a really high quality rooted tooth from Erfoud where the quality is normally a lot less desirable than in the south (taouz begga), if you still have the opportunity to get this and the budget I personally would as rooted teeth from the kem kem beds are not too common and especially not at this level of quality. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Haravex Posted September 21 Share Posted September 21 The only thing I will add is that the tip looks to have been repaired and not aligned very well a simple prep job would talk no longer than 30 minutes to do and make it look a lot better. Link to post Share on other sites
