This is a beautiful heteromorphic ammonite. It is a large Anclyoceras matheronianum from Saratov, Russia. This type of ammonite is loosely coiled, and this specimen displays this feature in textbook fashion. The ammonite has exquisite detail, with the ribbing pattern very easily seen. The colorful nacreous shell still has the striking iridescence preserved. The ammonite is almost perfectly centered on the oval matrix block. This is one of the largest and most displayable ammonites we have had. It is a showcase fossil that would easily be the centerpiece of any fossil collection.
