The dinosaur was first discovered in the 1990s in the US state of Wyoming and restored by palaeontologist Barry James, from whom it got its name.
An unusually well-preserved dinosaur skeleton, a Camptosaurus known as 'Barry' that dates from the late Jurassic period some 150 million years ago, will go under the hammer in Paris next month.
Italian laboratory Zoic, which acquired Barry last year, has done further restoration work on the skeleton, which is 2.10 metres tall and 5 metres long. "To take the example of its skull, the skull is complete at 90% and the rest of the dinosaur is complete at 80 percent," he said.
