A stunning example of a highly pyritised ammonite fossil of the species Crucilobiceras densinodulum from the world-famous Jurassic Coast beach of Charmouth, Dorset UK.
The fossil measures 45 mm (1.8 inch) across, which is large for this species. The ammonite shell is well preserved with great detail in the ribbing and suture lines and it has a beautiful pyritic metallic shine. Part of the outer whorl is missing. These large Crucilobiceras ammonites are very popular and hard to find.
Around 196 million years old, this fossil would make a wonderful addition to any collection.
