2.5" Fossil Dinosaur Ungual (Claw) Bone - Montana
This is an ungual (claw bone) that was collected from the Hell Creek Formation on a private lease in Dawson County, Montana. There is restoration along both edges (lateral and medial) of the bone and much of the cortical bone has weathered away. There are multiple dinosaurs (Hadrosaurids, Ankylosaurids, Ceratopsids) from the Hell Creek Formation with ungual bones, so the restoration along the lateral and medial edges of the bone make it difficult to provide an accurate dinosaur identification.
The bone measures about 2.5" long by 2.5" wide and comes with an acrylic display stand.

The Hell Creek Formation
Renowned for both its age and rich sedimentary layers, the Hell Creek Formation is one of the most intensively studied fossil-bearing regions on Earth. To date, scientists have documented 158 genera of animals and 64 genera of plants from its rocks, with new finds emerging regularly. Beyond iconic dinosaurs such as tyrannosaurs, ceratopsians, and hadrosaurs, the formation has produced an extraordinary array of life, including amphibians, reptiles, lizards, snakes, turtles, fish, sharks, birds, and early mammals. Together, these fossils provide the most complete picture of the ecosystems that thrived just before the Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction event.
