Promicroceras ammonite from the Jurassic Coast of Dorset, England. This fossil was initially found on the beach at Charmouth, and has been carefully prepared to reveal the fossil for the first time in 196 million years. The ammonite shell has been removed so that the calcite colours beneath can be seen. The ammonite also has a small bite mark on the outer whorl where it was likely fatally bitten by another sea creature. The rock has a cut-base so that the piece can be displayed without the need of a stand.
Fossil dimensions: 21mm
Rock dimensions: 45x45mm
