Promicroceras ammonite from the Jurassic Coast of Dorset, England. This fossil was initially found in a large stone on Charmouth beach, and has been carefully prepared using high-precision tools to reveal the fossil for the first time in 196 million years. The ammonite has a small bite mark on the outer whorl where it was likely fatally bitten by another sea creature. There is also a small trace of squid ink on the rock next to the ammonite. The rock has a cut-base so that the piece can be displayed without the need of a stand.
Fossil dimensions: 20mm
Rock dimensions: 45×30mm
