.47" Serrated, Theropod (Torvosaurus?) Tooth Tip - Colorado

This is a .47" long serrated tip of a large theropod dinosaur tooth. It comes from the Morrison Formation at our partners private quarry East of Dinosaur, Colorado. Given its size and courseness of serrations it is likely from Torvosaurus.

Torvosaurus is the largest and one of the rarest of the Morrison Formation theropods with only a single complete specimen having been recovered. Its teeth are distinguishable not just from their giant size, but they have much coarser serrations than those of Allosaurus.
