This is a GORGEOUS TOP QUALITY tooth from either the infamous American three horned dinosaur Triceratops or the similar but even larger Torosaurus from the Hell Creek Formation Hell Creek Formation in Powder River County, Montana, USA! They fed on tough vegetation, chomping off morsels with their beaks and grinding it down with their teeth. Once a tooth was worn down, they would spit it out and grow a new one, not unlike sharks. This is NOT one of those spit teeth. This is a MUCH rarer crown that had only just erupted and been used for a very short amount of time! The tooth is very three dimensional with a fantastic tip and a nearly complete root! It measures .5835 inches (1.48 cm) on its longest side and .4585 inches (1.16 cm) wide.

This is truly among the highest quality of fossils of one of the most ico
