AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

A well-preserved, fully articulated Mosasaurus foasil section measuring approximately 60 cm in height and 30 cm in width. The specimen retains a clear series of metacarpals, forming the functional flipper that powered this marine predator.

The fossil was collected from the phosphate deposits of Khouribga, Morocco and is 70 million years old. The bones are naturally arranged, giving the piece a striking, almost hand-like appearance without feeling overly reconstructed.

Professionally prepared and stabilized, the fossil shows strong anatomical clarity and surface detail. It presents well and is suitable for private collections. A refined, scientifically meaningful specimen that speaks for itself.
