Description from the seller
Scientific Name:
Spinosaurus aegyptiacus
Location:
Kem Kem Valley, Morocco
Stage:
Late Cretaceous – approx. 95–100 million years ago
Size:
More than 70 cm in length
(Exceptional-sized specimen)
Fossil description:
Extraordinarily rare specimen: a complete femur of Spinosaurus aegyptiacus exceeding 70 cm, an impressive size even within this gigantic semi-aquatic theropod.
Complete long bones of Spinosaurus are extremely scarce, and very few pieces of this magnitude appear in the Kem Kem Valley. This specimen stands out for its imposing presence, its well-defined shape, and its enormous scientific and display value.
The piece has been professionally restored and consolidated, with cracks filled to ensure structural stability without compromising its authenticity. Its overall condition is outstanding for a fossil of this size and age.
A piece that should not be missing in a high-level museum collection, both for its rarity and its visual impact.
Restoration:
Restored and consolidated; cracks stabilized and filled
