Here is a gorgeous ammonite. This is Asteroceras sp. from the Jurassic of England. This type of ammonite has coarse ribbing with a ridge running the length of the flattened keel. This 3-dimensional specimen exhibits great detail - the inner whorls are wonderfully defined. The fossil has terrific coloration - the golden yellow calcite/aragonite replacement contrasts superbly with the gray matrix. The ammonite is beautifully presented on the large block of matrix. This is an extremely displayable specimen of Asteroceras.
