Hi, All!
    For what it's worth, I noticed while sketching the hadrosaur "mummy" at
the AMNH, that the scales along the forearm seemed to be larger and heavier
than the scales on the rest of the body. The head, unfortunately, seems
pretty much plain skull - though there did seem to be some skin impressions
left within the naris... (could just as easily have been an artifact of
preparation...)

How about those mummified hadrosaurs, I'm sure one could validate this if we
had one of these animals to check on.
