Bersatu rogue six’s situation won't happen with DAP MPs as party constitution amended before GE15, says Anthony LokeThe fossil of stegosaurus specimen is on display at Sotheby’s in New York on July 10, 2024. The fossil dubbed ‘Apex’ by the paleontologist is expected to fetch US$4 million to US$6 million at auction on July 17, 2024, making it one of the most expensive fossils ever sold.
Named Apex, the giant skeleton — 3.3 metres tall and nearly 27 feet long — is billed as “the most complete and best-preserved” stegosaurus specimen of its size, counting 254 fossil bone elements of an approximate total of 319. The auction house estimates Apex’s value at US$4-US$6 million , though still less than Stan, the world’s most complete tyrannosaurus rex skeleton sold in 2020 for a record US$31.8 million.
Stegosaurus skeletons are already on display around the world, but according to Sotheby’s, Apex is 30 per cent larger than Sophie, the most complete stegosaurus on public display to date, which is housed in the Natural History Museum in London.
