This is a very nice ammonite fossil. It is a fine specimen of Scaphites from the Cretaceous of South Dakota. This type of ammonite has faint ribbing and a somewhat rounded keel. There are several rows of prominent nodes on the shoulders and near the keel of the ammonite. These features are very clearly defined on this specimen. But the most striking feature of this ammonite is its natural white color. The specimen is wonderfully positioned on a natural block of dense, concretionary matrix. It is a very good example of an ammonite fossil from the USA.
