Description: This exquisite polished Orthoceras Fossil, weighing 69g, is a true gem for collectors and enthusiasts of fossils and minerals. The stunning display specimen showcases the beauty and intricacy of nature's creation, with its unique patterns and colors that make it a standout piece in any collection. Orthoceras was an ancient cephalopod that lived about 370 million years ago. The name means straight horn, referring to the characteristic long, straight, conical shell. The preserved shell is all that remains of this ancestor of our modern-day squid. There is some confusion around the name. Scientifically orthoceras is a genus name used only for a particular extinct nautiloid cephalopod from the Baltic states and Sweden. However it is commonly used to refer to any species of extinct nautiloid cephalopod with a straight cone shaped shell. Measures 4.5 x 1.5 x 0.5 inches.
