Albertosaurus Dinosaur Tooth. Albertosaurus was a somewhat smaller version of its more famous relative T-Rex growing to just over 30 feet long. Albertosaurus may be a direct ancestor of T-Rex.

This 1½ inch mottled brown tooth was found on a private ranch in Montana. It is complete with good enamel and with a small section of the tip being expertly reattached with a minor chip on the very tip. Estimated Value $125 - 225
