Description: This mortoniceras ammonite was found in a Cooke county, TX creek in 2024. I prepared this ammonite using my dremel 290 to remove the matrix covering the inner whorls. This matrix was particularly tough and complicated by the presence of the “oceanic cockroaches” of the distant past: oysters. They covered the surface on both sides, making for slow progress! Both sides are prepped, and beautiful details are visible. Please REVIEW ALL PHOTOS prior to purchase. Its estimated age of 90-100 million years old places it in the age of dinosaurs, when a vast sea known as the western interior seaway covered the middle of the North American continent. Please review all photos prior to purchase! the ammonite has not been repaired, except for a few of the tiny nodes that were broken and glued back on. Approximately 9.5” diameter Approx 8.13 pounds weight Some info about my pricing: I typically sell unprepped mortoniceras ammonites to dealers for $7/inch. A nice prepped mortoniceras can go for as much as $20 per inch for larger ones. You’ll see some of my ammonites far cheaper than $7 per inch, usually due to how worn down or damaged the ammonite might be. I still want those ammonites to be good VALUE for the buyer.
