Hell Creek Mini Dawn Redwood Cones - Fossilized Metasequoia Cones
The Hell Creek Formation of North America is one of the most famous fossil-hunting locations in the world. Spread over portions of North and South Dakota, Montana, and Wyoming, Hell Creek is a unique time capsule, capturing the final years of the dinosaurs as well as many other flora and fauna.
This specimen is a small Metasequoia fossil cone from a Dawn Redwood at Hell Creek. These trees once towered over a landscape full of dinosaurs like Tyrannosaurus Rex, Triceratops, Pachycephalosaurus, and more. The fossils range in size from ~0.75-1" wide.
Note: These fossils are small and all show some signs of weathering from the fossilization process. This specimen cannot be returned or exchanged.
