Nice 1.5" Discoscaphites Gulosus Ammonite Cluster - South Dakota
These is a 1.5" wide Discoscaphites gulosus ammonite cluster from the Fox Hills Formation of South Dakota. The limestone has been cut flat to allow the ammonite to display without a stand.
These 70 million year old ammonites lived when South Dakota was a shallow inland sea. It was found preserved in a concretion that was split open. It then had to be hand prepared to remove the hard rock surrounding it from the shell, a very time consuming task.
