Collected from the famous Hell Creek Formation of Northwestern U.S.A., this is THE LARGEST CROWN TRICERATOPS TOOTH WE EVER HAD. It's crown is ENORMOUS! Furthermore, it has a long partial root. Unlike most teeth usually found which are "spit teeth" or ones that were ejected from the dinosaur's mouth when alive, this one still has the root attached and only a partially worn crown. The presence of a root indicates this tooth was in the Triceratops' jaw when it died. Rarely are Triceratops teeth found loose that have the root as this one does. This tooth would have come from a MAXIMUM-SIZE Triceratops dinosaur. SINGLE REPAIR ON ROOT (NOT CROWN) AND NO RESTORATION. Highly recommended!
Triceratops is the most famous of the great horned dinosaurs. This plant-eating group has been found in the fossil record in greater abundance than all the other varieties. A full grown Triceratops is estimated to have weighed 11 tons, heavier than a modern African bull elephant. Its skull was 6.5 feet long with a pair of brow horns that exceeded 3 feet in length.
