This beautifully preserved Scunthorpe ammonite comes with its own wrought iron display stand. The ammonite has been preserved in solid calcite and exhibits many colours including browns, creams, whites and the odd fleck of pink. There is no restoration whatsoever, just a small repair on the reverse side. Scunthorpe ammonites are becoming very rare indeed as all the quarries were backfilled in the early 90's. These fossils are not only stunning as display objects, but a sound investment for the future. Fossils Direct are constantly striving to bring our customers both old and new, the very finest fossils from around the United Kingdom. Approximately 200 million years old.
