.86" Allosaurus Tooth - Skull Creek Quarry

This is a nice .72" long tooth of Allosaurus fragilis from the Skull Creek Quarry near Dinosaur, CO. There is feeding wear to the tip, one crack repair and no restoration.

It comes from the Salt & Pepper Quarry at Skull Creek, near Dinosaur Colorado. This tooth came from a sandy layer in the quarry about a meter below the layers that contain articulated dinosaur remains. This sandy layer contains teeth and tumbled bones fragments but no articulation, most likely representing an event such as a flood.
