7.3" Stegosaurus Cervical Vertebra On Stand - Colorado
Stegosaurus, despite its popularity is one of the rarer dinosaurs in the Morrison Formation with only a handful of skeletons being found. This is a beautifully preserved cervical (neck) vertebrae of a Stegosaurus collected from a private quarry East of Dinosaur, Colorado.
It measures 7.3" long, 6.1" tall and comes mounted on a custom metal stand. It was found in a in a hard sandstone layer, so they are remarkably well preserved, and required very little restoration, other than some small gap fills in the cracks.
