Is this a triceratops shed tooth? It is from Lance Creek formation Wyoming. It is 0.54 inches wide.

Is any part of this Psittacosaurus fossil original or could possibly be a composite?

Just curious if this is a scam.
I know the website is reliable, but these are small fragments and I’m not sure how they assign them to a specific genus like Triceratops. Or how they even identify a fragment as Hadrosaur or Sauropod. Are they broken off bigger chunks that are identifiable?
No, I haven’t purchased any of these btw. I got a turtle shell fragment from them, but I feel like that is easier to identify than a random piece of bone.

Real or fake
Looking for a nothosaurus tooth for my collection and I've seen a few on daily rex and etsy, does anyone know if any of these are legit? I know that daily rex is generally accepted to be a good seller, I just like to make extra sure since I don't venture much outside of sites like fossilera or dino fossils uk fir my fossils.
