Geological period: Late Jurassic 172- 140MYA
Item location: Bone Cabin Quarry , Wyoming By Western Paleo Crew from Private land from Fossil leaser of land
Description and rating: 1-10 9.7 . This steg femur is so great . It is 100% with only a few crack and spot fills. It was repaired only, and now show a pristine bone that was covered for protection with penetrant sealant which gives a shinier appearance and protects the bone so its very sturdy for shipment. This color of black is so typical of this area for Jurassic. This is an amazing bone. It does have some compression on one side so typical of Jurassic Bone due to millions of years of pressure femurs so do curve a lot more than other bone but this one is a little more exaggerated . There was very little filler use as the originality is great Most large bones have 20% restoration . This is larger than most steg femurs so it probably was a male . Anyway this is a must bone if you want one of my favorite dinosaurs. I decided to sell very inexpensively but cant
