Description from the seller

Authentic tooth of Globidens, a rare durophagous mosasaur from the Late Cretaceous.
Well-preserved, robust enamel crown with natural brown to dark coloration and the characteristic rounded, crushing morphology typical of the genus. Partially preserved root with visible mineralization and sediment traces. Shows typical wear patterns and minor cracks consistent with genuine fossilization and a diet adapted to hard-shelled prey.
From the phosphate deposits of Morocco.
