Brevicollis Posted May 12 Share Posted May 12 Hello, I saw this "Argentinian jaw" for sale today and wondered If its really a jaw or an interesting rock formation. Its exact finding location isnt stated, but its apparently from Argentina. Has anyone an Idea ? 1 My account and something about me : My still growing collection : My paleoart : Im just a guy who really loves fossils Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockwood Posted May 12 Share Posted May 12 I'm no expert, but it looks like a piece of Theropod jaw to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds too good to be true, but lets hear what others have to say. But if its really one, than im speechless. 1 My account and something about me : My still growing collection : My paleoart : Im just a guy who really loves fossils Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brevicollis Posted May 12 Author Share Posted May 12 Maybe its only the roots, as im not seeing crowns here. So I think it'll be hard to tell whose teeth are these. 2 My account and something about me : My still growing collection : My paleoart : Im just a guy who really loves fossils Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FB003 Posted May 12 Share Posted May 12 1) Illegal to export from Argentina. First red flag. Stuff from there that is legitimate is not the kind of stuff you see posted on the open market. I believe these pretty much just hover from private collection to private collection. 2) I don't quite buy theropod jaw. Seems like a lot of inconsistency in size if the pointy ends are the tops of the "teeth" or vice versa. I'm not sure I buy teeth either at least not dinosaur. 1 *Frank* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
