1.5" Serrated Dinosaur (Allosaurus) Tooth - Colorado

Serrated Dinosaur (Allosaurus) Tooth - Colorado #218327

This is a gorgeous, serrated, 1.5" long Allosaurus tooth collected from our partner's private quarry East of Dinosaur, Colorado. It has excellent enamel and serration preservation, and has been mostly removed from the rock it was found in. There is a couple repaired cracks at the tip and some minor gap fill restoration in one repair. The remaining rock has been cut flat to present on a level surface by itself.

Allosaurus was a genus of carnosaurian theropod that lived from 156 to 145 million years ago during the Late Jurassic. Allosaurus species were predators with massive skulls, serrated teeth, and gaping jaws. This powerful and plentiful carnivore genus could grow more than 30 feet long. Their fossils are abundant in the Morrison Formation, leading some to suggest that Allosaurus species may have been pack hunters.
