A Top Quality, Triceratops horridus brow horn from the late Cretaceous of northern North America. A May 2023 Fossil of the Month. Triceratops was a large ceratopsian dinosaur found in the Hell Creek Formation. This is a special horn with exceptional detail preserved and excellent color & natural patina.

Plus this horn includes most of the orbital which is quite rare - a very complete specimen.

This is not a horn that is 20 - 30% or more putty which you most often see. It comes with a custom steel stand as shown. A fantastic fossil overall for display.
