A superb adult mosasaurus (Platecarpus ptychodon) specimen - 4.8m long! Best preservation - high end top fossil!

The skeleton is very complete, from nose bone to tail.  Single tail vertebrae never got separated during preparation!

A few teeth were missing and have been - anatomic correct - replaced. 
No plaster or resin bones nor 3D printed pieces in this fossil!

Metal stand included.

Investment grade - great inflation hedge.

Help with mounting possible against covered expenses.
