Lot 719
Partial Lizard in 100-Million-Year-Old Amber. One of the rarest and most desirable of creatures in amber is the lizard. This remarkable 15 mm long lizard foot is encased in a 15 x 10 mm translucent orange 100-million-year-old Burmite amber nugget that clearly shows the lizard foot with a long extended fourth toe, a couple of small insects, and a small twig that the foot appears to be grasping. This unusual lizard foot is very similar to that of the living green Basilisk lizard, which has a similarly extended fourth toe and can walk on water thanks to the webbing between its toes. Estimate Value $2,000 - 2,750
