???? Who says you need to be a T-Rex to make a big impact? Recently, a Stegosaurus skeleton, affectionately named “Apex”, shattered records by selling for an astounding $44.6 million at a Sotheby’s auction. This 150-million-year-old marvel, discovered in Colorado, is now the most expensive dinosaur ever sold, surpassing even the mighty T-Rex in value. What makes this story truly inspiring is the reminder that there is a market for everyone and everything. “Apex” proves that you don’t need to be the biggest or the fiercest to make a significant impact. Record-breaking sale: $44.6 million at Sotheby’s auction Historical significance: 150-million-year-old Stegosaurus skeleton Public access: The buyer plans to loan “Apex” to a U.S. institution Whether you’re a Stegosaurus or a T-Rex, there’s a place for your unique contributions. Infact you might beat the most powerful! Ofcourse, it fascinates me how these ancient creatures continue to capture our imagination and command such high prices.. #Inspiration #motivation #personaldevelopment

A new blog post about the $44.6 million sale of the dinosaur fossil "Apex" -- and how the high end of the non-art market compares with the art market: https://lnkd.in/eUngcjxx The highest auction sale this July — and one of the highest all year — was not of a work of art but rather a nearly complete fossil skeleton of a Stegosaurus, named “Apex.” The mounted dinosaur fossil fetched $44.6 million at Sotheby’s, New York on July 17, setting a record, by far, for a fossil sold at auction; the previous record was $31.8 million for the T-Rex skeleton, “Stan” at Christie’s, NY in 2020. The buyer of “Apex” was financier Ken Griffin, who is well known for collecting at the top of the art market, e.g. his 2015 purchase of Willem de Kooning’s Interchange (1955) for a reported $300 million remains the highest known private sale nearly ten years later — and the second-highest known sale of a work of art in any market, after only the sale of the Salvator Mundi for $450 million at Christie’s, NY in 2017. Griffin, however, has been showing himself to be cross-sector trophy collector, making other notable purchases at the highest echelons of the non-art market. The purchase price of “Apex” was slightly more than his purchase price of $43.2 million for a rare copy of the US Constitution at Sotheby’s, NY in 2021, edging out a crypto-invetor consortium of 17,0000 people, ConstitutionDAO.

https://lnkd.in/dgdVUHXm "Over eons, his bones solidified and became fossils. Then, a little more than a decade ago, a pair of fossil hunters dug up a patch of land in Montana. With brushes, hammers and chisels, the pair painstakingly unearthed 126 bones, revealing a fossilized Deinonychus, the fierce carnivore that inspired the terrifying “Velociraptors” in the novel and movie Jurassic Park1. The fossil was of serious scientific importance. Endowed with celebrity, it had significant monetary value too. When the dinosaur, nicknamed ‘Hector,’ was put up for auction in 2022 at Christie’s in New York, an anonymous buyer paid $12.4 million — twice the auction house’s estimate. Immediately afterward, the specimen was whisked away, its whereabouts and ownership unknown. Hector is one of many dinosaurs to hit the auction block in a recent spate. From just a smattering of auctions in the 2000s, sales ramped up in the past decade or so. Today, there are two or three major sales each year, and the sums involved are gargantuan. In the past five years alone, buyers at auctions have paid: $6 million for a Gorgosaurus, the close cousin of Tyrannosaurus rex; $8 million for the remains of a Triceratops nicknamed ‘Big John’; and $31.8 million for ‘Stan,’ a bona fide T. rex skeleton. Not every auction is a roaring success — the sale of a T. rex skull in 2022 fell well below its pre-auction estimate, though it still went for a staggering $6.1 million. These sales make one thing clear: Fossilized dinosaurs are emerging as a new asset class, subject to the whim of the market, exposed to the laws of supply and demand. Like works of art, fine wine and sporting memorabilia, fossils too can be sold to the highest bidder, regardless of the scientific consequences. Their value is hard to pinpoint exactly — each fossil is unique, and there is a paucity of market data on which to base sale estimates — but the rarity and fascination of good fossils has helped boost the price that rich collectors, or investors, are willing to pay."

Check out these 3D scanned Iguanodon fragments we've digitally reconstructed. Discovered locally in High Brooms, Tunbridge Wells, Iguanodons existed in the Early Cretaceous period (about 135 million years ago). The Iguanodon was a large, herbivorous dinosaur with a bulky body, beaked mouth, thumb spikes, and powerful hind legs for reaching high up vegetation. You can view these fragments here and in our Jurassic Wells display: https://lnkd.in/eMUUCzr5

TUNDRO! This wasn’t just any prehistoric powerhouse – Tundro was a walking fortress straight out of Hanna-Barbera’s The Herculoids. Picture a tank crossed with a raging rhino, but with an extraterrestrial twist. Its armored, rock-like hide made it nearly indestructible, and instead of ordinary horns, Tundro packed some serious heat – launching explosive energy blasts or streams of fire from that colossal cannon-horn! Whether charging headfirst into danger or holding the line with its barrage of firepower, Tundro wasn’t just a creature – it was the ultimate alien war beast. In a world filled with fantastic monsters and cosmic villains, Tundro stood tall (and heavily armed), ready to defend the Herculoids at a moment’s notice. Who needed a plain old dinosaur when you could have a horned juggernaut that could blow things to smithereens?
