Are these real Spinosaurus claws? These claws were found in Kem Kem, Morocco.

The size is 4.8cm. If anyone knows please let me know. Thanks in advance!白亜紀-獣脚類-スピノサウルス-恐竜-手の爪-ケム-ケムベッド-モロッコ-sku-v4276-スピノサウルス-sp-indet-p7121-20695_zoom.thumb.jpg.3613d7d08f34309e504badf0da8500dc.jpg白亜紀-獣脚類-スピノサウルス-恐竜-手の爪-ケム-ケムベッド-モロッコ-sku-v4276-スピノサウルス-sp-indet-p7121-20694_zoom.thumb.jpg.ad4972868b3888aa863602ed0ba5801a.jpg

Could you ask for an end on picture of the inside? Also you might want to edit the picture so it doesn't have the sellers name etc on it!

thank you for your reply. Can I add a photo of the interior to the seller now? I sent you a message, so I would like to wait for a reply.

These do not look real at all to me. In particular the nutrient groove appears carved, as it does not terminate on the dorsal side as a real groove would. Additionally, the overall texturing of this piece is suspicious. Definitely stay away.

I agree, the texture looks off and the groove looks carved.  I wouldn't touch it, but if you're still not sure ask for some closeups of the surface.

It is not Spinosaurus claw.

I believe what you have are similar to these from my collection but yours is missing the articulation end.

We've discussed this morphology several times in this forum and believe they might be from an indeterminate theropod but its status is uncertain.

 

Please post comments in english like Tim indicated.
