Jbminky Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 2.5 inch premaxillary. No real reason to suppose not Rex. Serration count around 18 per cm. Any observations? I've placed it up against Rex premaxillary teeth in the last picture for comparison. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troodon Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 Spot on, a pre-max tooth with that size can only be Rex. I'm assuming its from the Hell Creek or Lance Formation. Very nice big tooth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jbminky Posted August 25, 2014 Author Share Posted August 25, 2014 Thanks Troodon. Yes, Hell Creek. There's something special about premax teeth I always think! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auspex Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 So...menacing. Nice fossil!

Troodon Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 I have a cast of the entire pre-max of Stan one of the largest Rex's found and its awesome. Enjoy your tooth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jbminky Posted August 25, 2014 Author Share Posted August 25, 2014 Thanks. Always interesting to gauge people's reaction to it. Really sorts out those with imagination from those without! Your cast sounds great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
