The best quality agatized dinosaur bone comes from the Jurassic era in Utah. 150 million year old Morrison Formation gem quality dinosaur bone was carefully shaped into a 4.25 inch sphere and polished, revealing a rainbow of colors in the individual cells, ranging from white, cream, brown, yellow, orange, and even green and blue. This gem-quality bone sphere is from the Tom Helfrich Collection. Tom Helfrich was the author of "Dinosaur Vanishing of a Gem Bone." This gem quality dinosaur bone sphere comes on its own custom iron stand for display.
