About the Item
This exceptional Edmontosaurus metatarsal hails from the world-renowned Hell Creek Formation of Western South Dakota, a site that continues to yield some of the most celebrated fossils of the Late Cretaceous period. Dating back over 66 million years, this robust bone exemplifies the strength and endurance of one of the last great hadrosaurs to roam North America.
The specimen displays striking curvature and a richly textured surface with well-defined vascular channels, subtle mineralization, and a deep earthen brown patina. Natural sediment staining enhances its visual depth, while the preserved articulation points testify to its scientific integrity. With both aesthetic and paleontological appeal, this rare piece offers a tangible connection to the age of dinosaurs and makes an outstanding addition to any serious fossil collection.
