Real Spinosaurus jaw ?

[Brevicollis]

Hello, I saw this Spinosaurus jaw for sale today and wondered If its real or fake. It appears to be glued or a bit reconstructed and not very well preserved, but also looks a bit off to me (texture, shape)

One small tooth is still in place, and suprisingly, it looks more genuine.

But lets hear what you think about it.

It was found in the Kemkem beds, morocco.

I don’t see anything that indicates jaw here other than a tooth being there. To me, that looks like it was most likely placed there. That’s my vote at least.

There is nothing that indicates a jaw. To me it is just a chunk of matrix with a tooth in it. Also I am not so sure it is even a Spino tooth. Could very well be mosasaur or croc. Hard to tell with matrix covering it and the tip gone.

I agree with both FB003 and Darktooth. There is absolutely no evidence for it to be a jaw, aside from a tooth, that may not even necessarily be a Spinosaurus tooth. My guess on the tooth is Crocodilian of some sort, as I had seen a similar tooth labelled as a crocodile tooth about a month ago.
