VERY RARE GREEN PHYLLOCERAS AMMONITE - Grafenberg, Germany

UPPER JURASSIC PERIOD (MALM):   154 - 144 million years ago

A VERY rare occurrence can be found at an exclusive Upper Jurassic fossil-bearing site in Germany.  The ammonites have been preserved a beautiful and completely natural GREEN hue in the light gray host rock!  We were fortunate to collect a very small number of rare ammonites from this site.  All but this specimen were of the Perisphinctes variety.  This VERY RARE Phylloceras supraliasicum was the only one collected and is highly uncommon from this deposit.  Even more interesting, it sports a mint green tone in varying degrees to compliment the cool gray matrix still partly attached in a small region on the reverse.

This highly collectible ammonite was found is sure to please the ammonite aficionado.  The characteristic septa of this species is dramatically intact and shown above in the close up images.  A fantastic reference specimen as well, we cannot recommend this one enough.  

A unique site and a beautiful specimen for collectors desiring rare and uncommon fossils!

ONLY SPECIMEN OF THIS RARE SPECIES WE COLLECTED - BIZARRE COLOR FROM THIS SITE!
