Authenticity Specimen: Perisphinctes Ammonite Location: France Age: Jurassic. Scale cube=1cm: Full sizing please see photo Ammonites are one of the most recognisable fossils around, this is due to their familiar spiral shape shell, reminiscent of what we know as a snail shell, though these creatures are not related to snails at all! They were marine animals, present between 240 - 65 million years ago, who had a coiled external shell similar to that of the modern nautilus, and although they resembled a modern day nautilus, these molluscs are more closely related to living coleoids (i.e. octopuses, squid, and cuttlefish!) The photo shows the ACTUAL specimen you will receive.
