Here is a nice pair of ammonites from the Jurassic of Russia. There are two different ammonites beautifully displayed together. The larger ammonite is a wonderful example of Cosmoceras pronae This type of ammonite has fine ribbing and a sharp keel. The smaller ammonite is an unusual specimen of Quenstedtoceras sp. This type of cephalopod has wide, coarse ribbing, small nodes, and a more rounded keel. Both ammonites are very 3-dimensional and exhibit great detail. The inner whorls of the ammonites are clearly defined, and the nacreous shell is exquisitely preserved. The completely natural, iridescent coloration of the fossils is just fabulous. The larger ammonite has a small hole drilled in the back for a stand (not included). This is an aesthetic specimen of two different ammonites from Russia with wonderful color.
A Certificate of Authenticity from EXTINCTIONS is included with this specimen.
