Fossilised claw - Set of 2 Rare Partial Unidentified Theropod Dinosaur Claws - Lower Cretaceous Elrhaz Fm

Scientific name: Unidentified Theropod Dinosaur claws - Set of 2 specimens Location: Gadoufaoua, Téneré Desert, Niger. Geological Formation: Elrhaz Fm Age: Lower Cretaceous, Aptian/Albian stage ( 113 million years) Size (long the biggest): 3,19cm REF.: J335 DESCRIPTION: Rare unusual specimens. Due to their morphology, they should belong to an small-medium sized theropod dinosaur. It is very difficult to arrive at a precise taxonomic assignment and ID when only one isolated claws are available. Be that as it may, they are a jewel worthy of the most exquisite collectors. Observations: Partial claws missing the tip. Not restored or glued. Unfortunately, they are very eroded after suffering for thousands of years exposed on the surface of the desert. All our fossils come with Certificate of Authenticity. Every week, the issued Certificates of Authenticity are updated in our website database verification system. If you find that your certificate has not yet been updated, please contact us and we will update it immediately. Display box included. IMPORTANT SHIPPING INFORMATION: All shipments to the USA are sent via UPS Express. We are not responsible for any additional tariff charges that US Customs may add as import fees on the declared commercial value.
