Discover an authentic Spinosaurus tooth from the Cretaceous era, a genuine fossil spanning back 100 million years to North Africa's ancient ecosystems. This remarkable theropod dinosaur dominated its time as the largest carnivorous dinosaur ever discovered—exceeding the Tyrannosaurus Rex in both length and weight, with some individuals reaching 49 feet and tipping the scales at 6 tons. The Spinosaurus earned its name, meaning "spine lizard," from the distinctive sail-like structure formed by elongated vertebral spines along its back, complemented by a long, narrow crocodile-like skull perfectly adapted for hunting. This exceptional fossil tooth connects you directly to one of Earth's most formidable predators. Each piece arrives with a Certificate of Authenticity, making it an ideal addition for paleontology enthusiasts and serious collectors alike.
Please be aware of the nature of fossils:
Being buried underground for millions of years under immense pressure can be harsh. Rarely does a fossil emerge intact and perfect. Most fossils require some restoration, and some are even modified by humans to improve their appearance. Moroccan workers excel at carefully excavating and preserving these natural treasures, but natural cracks are often visible on the surface. These cracks are part of the fossil's natural beauty and are not flaws.
