Lot 1184
70 Million Year Old Duckbill Dinosaur Egg. This complete unhatched Hadrosaur (Duckbill) dinosaur egg is 70-80 million years old, 6" long and 5" wide and is museum quality with nearly 100% of its original shell still intact. It was found by farmers from the Xixia, Henan Province of China. The exact species of dinosaur cannot be determined from just the egg, but this shape of egg has been determined to be from a duckbilled dinosaur from duckbilled dino bones found in the area of these recovered eggs. Bones from the huge Hadrosaur Shantungosaurus, which reached more than 50 feet in length, have been found in the same area. Fewer than 1% of dinosaur eggs are as complete and pristine as this egg, which is still positioned on a small red sandstone base of the original stone matrix. Add $25 for domestic shipping.
Estimated Value $500 - 750.
