Museum Quality Dinosaur Egg. This complete unhatched Duckbill dinosaur egg is 70-80 million years old, 6.5 x 6 inches, and has over 90 percent of its original shell intact. The egg is completely original with just the dirt and loose rock removed, leaving the shell with outstanding detail. We do not know which species this egg belongs to, but being the largest Duckbill egg, it might belong to the huge Shantungosaurus which reached more than 50 feet in length and has been found in the same area of Henan Province, China. The egg is set on a 7 x 6 inch reddish brown limestone matrix, making for an excellent display piece.

Add $25.00 for domestic shipping.
Estimated Value $600 - 800.
