How rare are real plesiosaurus jaws on the market ?
Brevicollis posted a topic in Questions & Answers
Hello, I wanted to ask how rare are Plesiosaurus jaws on the market? I've seen hundreds of real, fake, and composite Mosasaurus jaws from Morocco, but now I've seen a nice, big and real Plesiosaurus jaw with two teeth and no evidence of plaster. How rare is it to find a good one on the market? Thanks ! -

Got this shark tooth from a rock show a couple of years ago (when I was not into fossil collecting) and seller said it was from morocco, that is all I know as far as this tooth goes. (I am not a shark tooth expert by any means, but I can tell that the root is composite and not original) Thank you for your time!

Hello, i saw this already sold theropod tooth today, which was listed as "possible Dromeosaur tooth from morocco". Was it really one ? Or just another Abeli, Carch, or Noasaur tooth ?

Mosasaurus skull -- fake or real?
FF7_Yuffie posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
Hello, Any thoughts on this? A Mosasaurus skull. Is it fake, real or a composite or real and fake parts? cheers

I have decided to cash in my IRA and put the money into this rare, baby Mosasaur, I feel in the long run, with appreciation of the rare piece, I can beat the 16.78% return I had last year in the stock market. I am impressed at how robust infant mosasaurs were. They were obviously strong swimmers from birth! In the off chance, that there may be a small amount of repair; I am posting it here for opinions.

Spinosaurus toe bone real ?
Brevicollis posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
Hello, i have this toe bone labeled as spinosaurus in my collection. But it seems kinda suspicious to me. Theres definitly real bone that matches the form, but some areas look like plaster or still covered whith a layer of matrix. Is it real and bad preserverd, 50/50, or a complete fake ? And is it even Spinosaurus ? Because Spinosaurus toe bones are very flat compared to this one.

Hello, i saw this big Spinosaurus tooth on auction today and wondered, If the root is real and not a composed one. Obviously, a crack was filled, but thats OK for me, and everything else looks fine to me. The tooth Matches also whith the rooted one, seen in Troodon's guide. So would it be worth trying to get it, or should i stay far away from it ? Found in : Kemkem beds, morocco Sice : 12 cm

I'm a mineral collector rather than a fossil collector, but this gastropod replaced by chalcedony has one foot in each camp. It was labeled (by a mineral dealer) "Turritela fossil snail" with a locality given only as Morocco. It'd like to come a little closer taxonomically if I can. Any ideas? Thanks in advance. Edit: Forgot to include its dimensions: 24 mm tall x 15 mm diameter

Hello, i have this tooth labeled as Elosuchus from morocco. But i am not sure if its really one, could this be Spinosaurus too ? It has clear visible stirrations, but no carina. The cross section is circular. The tip has also an interesting shape, could this be the result of permanent use ? It was found in the Kemkem beds, morocco.

hi I recently wanted to find a Tylosaurid tooth from Morocco, but I'm confused about the tooth morphology of this ID. Because I found that some teeth described as Tylosaurid had very distinct protruding prisms (likes figure 3 and 4) on their crown surfaces, while some teeth were indeed relatively smooth (picture 1 and 2). Which one is correct?
