Triceratops Brow Horn. Triceratops with its two long brow horns and living at the same time as T-Rex is one of the most popular dinosaurs. This 13 x 6 inch brow horn is fairly large and from a juvenile Triceratops. The horns of a Triceratops are never found without cracks and are usually found in pieces but this horn was found in one piece and does have some moderate crack repair on one side. This is a near complete horn with just a little wear on the tip. The grooves in the horn represent areas where blood flowed to the horn. This is a horn core. In life the horn would have been covered with keratin (like our fingernails) and would have been about 30% larger. This large and heavy display fossil is 65-66 million years old and was found a private ranch in Montana. Not being perfect, this is an opportunity to acquire and impressive and important fossil and not pay more than $2,000 for it.

Add $25 to domestic shipping.
Estimated Value $1,000 - 1,500.
