Tyrannosaurus Bataar Egg. A museum-quality, complete, flattened egg, 14"x6½", with nearly 100% of the original shell, cracked but intact, with beautiful dark brown color on a red limestone base. The Tyrannosaurus eggs are both the largest and rarest of all dinosaur eggs. They are so rare because Tyrannosaurs did not travel in herds like most other dinosaurs and laid their eggs in isolated nests. This beautiful egg comes from the Henan Province, China. Tyrannosaurus Bataar is a cousin of Tyrannosaurus Rex from North America; there are no known eggs from a T-Rex. Virtually all of these huge eggs are hatched and flattened and are usually found with only 30-50% of their original shell. Very rare as no more are obtainable from China. Add $50 for domestic shipping.
Estimated Value $2,750 - 3,750.

 
Realized $2,415
