1.24" Nanotyrannus Tooth - Montana
This is a 1.24" long Nanotyrannus lancensis tooth from the Hell Creek Formation of Montana. It has very nice enamel preservation. There is some natural feeding wear the tip and serrations though most of the fine serrations are visible. It comes with a riker mount display case.
There is still much debate in the paleontological community about whether Nanotyrannus and Tyrannosaurus rex are really the same species, with Nanotyrannus representing juveniles. Hopefully new finds will come to light and settle this debate but given the fact isolated Tyrannosaurid teeth are notoriously hard to identify down to the species level, it's unlikely their teeth could be told apart accurately anyways.
