Item description and rating: 1-10 9.9 Wow It doesn’t get better than this except the Whole Arm I have also. This is a metal display that contains 3 large bones(Femur42” , Tibia, 22 “, and Fibula 21” . More people ask me for a whole Triceratops Leg than anything else except Sabercats . The entire leg is 82” High. The bone quality shape, texture, color, and size are super great. The femur has 8 inches of restore at distal end, and the rest of the 3 bones is top notch with almost 100% original with only crack and spot fills.It’s an adult(femur 42”) and I have many other bones listed here of the same animal also . The skull just wasn’t found as the vertebrae and feet but almost all the rest was found . This leg has a pathology with the femur and Tibia showing much arthritis especially on ends and close to ends. This makes these bones very very valuable. The dinosaur did have some diseased pathological characteristics on many of bones including the ischium pelvic bone which was not formed totally correct . This happens more than people think as I’ve had many thru the years. The display is so firm and works well. The femur I placed but has to be locked in better and will figure it out. This leg individually without display and full prep would cost over 15,000 just the bones . Add the metal display and it’s much more from all one dinosaur . My price is amazing .This is amazing. Its heavy but each piece can be placed in sockets by one person .It’s best by far to put on cement. I would not carpet unless wedged on one side due to weight. I have never seen this offered anywhere , and I also have an arm which is beautiful also . These are all one animal. Most times these are done whole when this much but feet , verts, head bones weren’t found. This beauty doesn’t get any better for this bone as the shape, color, bone quality are outstanding. I never saw a more beautiful leg set of any species. The bone quality is impeccable. It was found by a top dinosaur hunter and the brown color with texture. It was found underground -the best type due to excellent condition which results from protection under the ground. It can be shipped in a box safely. It’s a way to get a large display for a great price . I never had a whole leg before . This bone is the best, and is what makes this reptile a dinosaur as these ae the only reptiles that had arm bones directly over the feet. These bones are really rare to find even individually let alone all from same side of leg and same dinosaur. . I’ve sold femurs over 5000, and tibias over 4000 each so do the math .For you trike enthusiasts this is a keeper. I love trikes and this is multiple pieces you must have. This is a huge deal if you want quality and a huge set . The leg is approx. 100 lbs
