Couldn't load pickup availability
An incredible rare Placenticeras Meeki ammonite from the Cretaceous period (approx. 65–100 million years old), preserved in its raw mineralised state.
This is an exceptional piece and contains the preserved bite marks made by a marine reptile (plesiosaur/pliosaur), evidence of predation rarely seen in ammonites of this size.
The fossil remains in its raw, unpolished state, with visible sutures, compression patterning, and mineralised surface textures ranging from deep charcoal to calcified grey, earthy brown and ochre.
At 33 cm wide and weighing 8.1 kg, this is a display scale piece and is suitable for private collection and interiors where natural history objects are used as design elements.
