Is this a real fossil?

Yes. This is an authentic agatized dinosaur coprolite approximately 1 to 1.5 in long, from the Morrison Formation of Utah, 150 million years old. Not a cast.

No. All organic compounds were replaced by mineral material during the 150-million-year fossilization process. There is absolutely no odor.

How does the card display differ from the riker box versions?

The card display is a more compact, gift-friendly format - the fossil is affixed directly to the informational display card. The riker box versions (Small and Large) are presented in glass-topped display cases for a more collector-oriented presentation.

Real Dinosaur Poop, Displayed on a Card

Coprolites are trace fossils - not the animal itself, but evidence of its presence. Over 150 million years, the organic material of this sauropod's digestive output was replaced grain by grain with silicate mineral, creating a durable fossil that tells us more about what the dinosaur ate than its bones alone ever could. This card display format makes it a perfect gift or entry-level collector's piece.
