Name:
Eparietites sp.
Geologic Age: Jurassic
Stratigraphic detail: Froddingham Ironstone quarry of
Scunthorpe, Lincolnshire, England
Comments: This wonderful
RARE AMMONITE that has
stunning calcite replacement and smooth ribbing.
It has been painstakingly prepared and
polished to an extremely high standard.
The back side of this
ammonite, like virtually ALL of the Eparietites has not been prepared.. when
these ammonites are found and exposed they are typically damaged.. so they are
prepped from the backside so that the undamaged, true beauty of these
ammonites can be exposed. The Ammonite measures
8" across. A truly museum grade example of one of the worlds most sought after
Ammonites. SHARP keel!!!
