Regarding the claws, forget it. Authentic claws are rarer (less of them per dino vs teeth, and then even fewer claws are found preserved vs teeth which preserve better because of the enamel...) If you can get them focused on fossil shark teeth, you can get some imperfect carcarocles megaldon (extinct great white ancestor that grew to be as big as a Grey Hound bus) that are from the Miocene, generally 1-10 million years old. These teeth run from an 1 inch to 7 inches long, figure about 10 feet of shark per inch. Hope this helps, Terry -------------------------------1070066228 Content-Type: text/html; charset="US-ASCII" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <HTML><HEAD> <META charset=3DUTF-8 http-equiv=3DContent-Type content=3D"text/html; charse= t=3Dutf-8"> <META content=3D"MSHTML 6.00.2800.1106" name=3DGENERATOR></HEAD> <BODY style=3D"FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial; BACKGROUND-COLOR: #fffff= f"> <DIV>Tom:</DIV> <DIV>You can get some decent authentic spinosaurus (Jurassic Park III) teeth= on Ebay rather inexpensively (some times even as low as $5-$10 a tooth).&nb= sp; Regarding the claws, forget it.
