<p>[QUOTE="Sam Wainford, post: 561020, member: 10317"]I suppose if I had it tested and it turned out to be from mammoth tusk, that would document that it is more than 100 years old. Based on the Schreger Lines, it looks like elephant, but I don't know enough about grain to tell for sure. It does seem like too much trouble to take the chance. That's what I get for procrastinating on selling it. Should have done this 30 years ago.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
