This is a nice big tooth - it has a bit of damage but has good enamel and rests on its original matrix.

Condition: Good

Size: 1.5 inches (tooth, excluding surrounding rock)

Age: 152 - 140 Million Years (Upper Jurassic/Lower Cretaceous)

Locality: Talsint, Figuig Province, Atlas Mountains, Morocco (Ksar Metlili Fm.)
