Now this is something truly special!
This is a beautiful brow horn from the infamous American three horned dinosaur Triceratops from the equally infamous Hell Creek Formation near Lusk, Wyoming in Niobrara County, Wyoming, USA! These massive herbivores, nearly 30 feet long and ten tons, roamed North America in large herds 66 million years ago. They fed on tough vegetation, chomping off morsels with their beaks and grinding it down with their teeth. Their most striking features are its horns and frill. The horns above its eyes reaching over three feet (1 meter) in length! The piece measures just over 20.5 inches (52.07 cm) long and 4.5135 x 3.9555 inches (11.46 x 10.05 cm) with fantastic preservation of the blood grooves! There are a few repaired breaks, but no restoration! It comes with a custom metal stand for a beautiful display! This is a truly museum quality piece worthy of display in any fossil collection!
All of my items come with a Certificate of Authenticity!
