This is a colorful specimen of a Lyoceras lyghum ammonite from the Cretaceous of Madagascar. This 3-dimensional ammonite has been removed from the surrounding matrix and highly polished on both sides. The tiny inner whorls of the lenticular ammonite are easily seen, and the intricate suture pattern is beautifully displayed. The large cream-colored ''section'' lines contrast wonderfully with the golden-brown shell of the cephalopod. The color of the ammonite, the unusual suture pattern, and the exquisite detail make this an extremely collectible specimen.
