HUGE CARCHARODONTOSAURUS DINOSAUR TOOTH - "Taouz" region of the Sahara Desert, Morocco

LATE CRETACEOUS PERIOD:  96 - 66 million years ago

What is important to consider in this giant investment-grade dinosaur tooth is that there is none of the common restoration found in these large teeth.  All the pieces are present and this remarkable tooth has only been repaired.  There is none of the "glue and sand" tricks where missing areas are filled.  You can plainly see the broken root at the base indicating that this is all tooth.  Unlike the majority of "large" teeth we have seen in the online auctions, this choice specimen has not been painted nor has part of another tooth been cleverly attached to make one large tooth.  This is a GENUINE and single massive specimen that has only undergone repair and nothing more!

This amazing specimen is far nicer than appears in the images above.  The enamel is nearly intact with a warm orange gold hue and excellent graining and shine.  The serrations are in superb condition on the trailing edge and are intact the ENTIRE length of the tooth.  THE TIP IS GENUINE AND ORIGINAL and exhibits virtually no wear!  Unlike other large teeth that have large areas filled with sand and glue or are missing portions that have been recreated, this tooth has NO RESTORATION and required only minor repair to fine cracks.  All in all, this tooth would be considered a fantastic and excellent example in any size but its giant proportions make it a true PRIZE!

The most ferocious and sizeable killer dinosaur that lived in the North African continent during the Cretaceous was the Carcharodontosaurus.  Many misinformed dealers and collectors call this the African T. rex but there is no relation to such.  Nevertheless, fine quality teeth from Carcharodontosaurus have appreciated so rapidly in value just in the last year alone that prices are now approaching T. rex teeth because the source is nearly depleted.  Considering this, this amazing specimen could be one of the  last chances to own a genuine and complete giant dinosaur tooth from one of the most fearsome killers that walked the earth.  

This specimen is EXTREMELY RARE and should be included in any serious collector's cabinet while still available in this lifetime.  It represents the finest and rarest quality available and is a MUST HAVE for any true dinosaur aficionado.  Genuine LARGE examples from ANY carnivorous dinosaur are now one of the rarest fossils, guaranteed to permanently appreciate in a very aggressive manner in the coming years.  The demand for quality GENUINE dinosaur remains continue to escalate while sources near complete depletion.
