A nodule which is crowded with small ammonites tightly packed together. This is a small, but very attractive specimen where the ammonites have been carefully revealed by skilful preparation work.
Ammonites are extinct marine shellfish that were common during the age of the dinosaurs, a period of the Earth's history when much of England was submerged beneath warm seas.
The base has been cut flat so that it displays well without the need for a stand. Presented in a lidded gift box.
