Real or fake root on Spinosaurus tooth ?


Recommended Posts

Hello,

I saw this rooted moroccan Spinosaurus tooth with root on auction today and wondered how much of it is real. It appears like its real, but was glued back together multiple times pretty badly. 

 

Should I avoid it ?

Like Joris mentioned, very poorly preserved , scattered real root with lots of filler and glue to keep it together. One very good restorer could make something beter out of this one for sure
