Again, another well preserved coprolite in an ironstone nodule which has been ground gem smooth and a polish applied to reveal the coprolite's internal structure, great for study purposes with this 345 million year old specimen. These specimens were discovered in 1973 in a riverbed and it is virtually impossible to collect them nowadays due to constant high water levels. A lovely and very interesting drawer specimen.
Around the London area 40 million years ago, was a warm and tropical sea in which lived a wide range of marine fauna. This particular specimen is from a very large fish and is a perfect three dimensional, matrix free vertebra of high quality. This would make a lovely drawer specimen.
