Duck bill Dinosaur Egg From Henan Province, China. This fully prepared airbrushed chocolate brown egg is 7 in. long, 6 in. wide, and 5 in. high. It is a complete, unhatched egg with excellent shell quality, having only a minimal repair of a crack runs along the top of the egg and a couple of small pieces of eggshell glued into place on one side. The egg sits attractively on a shaped section of the natural red sandstone base. The 70-80 million year old egg was found by farmers from the Xixia Henan Province of China. The exact species of dinosaur cannot be determined from just an egg, but this oblong shape has been determined to be from a duckbilled dinosaur, since ducbilled dinosaur bones have been found in the area such nests. Such a hadrosaur duckbilled dinosaur is Shantungosaurus that has been found in the same area as the eggs and was one of the largest hadrosaurs at more than 50 feet long. Allow $35 for shipping.
Estimated Value $500 - 800.
