This is a fine tooth from the dinosaur, Saltasaurus robustus, from the Cretaceous of Argentina. Dinosaur remains from Argentina are very difficult to obtain - this specimen was acquired from an old collection. Saltasaurus is a relatively small, armor-plated titanosaurid. This is a nice tooth with a chisel-pointed tip, a beautiful, natural wear facet. The enamel is quite dark and in very good condition. This is a very fine specimen of a very difficult-to-obtain dinosaur tooth.

Note: Argentina has now banned the export of all fossils. We will strictly abide by and enforce this law - we will not acquire new fossils from Argentina. However, this fossil was collected and exported prior to this law, and can be sold legally.

A Certificate of Authenticity from EXTINCTIONS is included with this specimen.
