T-Rex Skeleton Sells for Record-Breaking $6 Million at Auction.

A composite T-Rex skeleton called Trinity, made up of bones from three different T-Rexes, has sold for $6.1m to a private European collector of modern art and dinosaur relics at an auction in Switzerland. The skeleton, estimated to be 65m to 67m years old, had been expected to fetch a higher price. The skeleton measures 3.9 metres high, 11.6 metres long and 2.65 metres wide. More than half the skeleton’s bones are original with the rest made from plaster and epoxy resin casts.
