SEE MORE DELTADROMEUS DINOSAUR FOSSILS
Collected long ago when the Kem Kem deposits (now nearly devoid of good dinosaur material) once produced spectacular dinosaur fossils, this is a supreme quality dinosaur tooth from the large, swift meat-eater Deltadromeus agilis. High grade specimens are very hard to locate and it has been over 15 years of overseas trips to the source in the Sahara since we have seen teeth of this quality. With much of the dinosaur fossil remains in this area now completely dug out and large parts of the formation leveled, it is likely that teeth like this will now be found mainly in older collections as this one was in.
This rare dinosaur tooth is UNBROKEN WITH NO REPAIR OR RESTORATION. Tip shows a wear facet from feeding when the dinosaur was alive. Serrations are intact and crisp. The enamel is in superb preservation with natural luster, not from being dipped in a clear sealer or coated with anything to artificially make it glossy.
