PERISPHINCTES AMMONITE IN MATRIX - Drugendorf, Germany

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

This stunning multi-colored Perisphinctes species ammonite is from a very rare and exclusive site in Drugendorf, Germany.  The host rock is a beautiful ivory white with spatterings of orange and espresso hues.  The ammonite rests on the matrix opposite another segment of a larger ammonite of the same species as shown on the back of the rock in the last image.  This highly unusual and rare example is just the kind of material that collectors strive for - a beautiful example from a non-commercial and unheard of location!  If you have enough Madagascar ammonites and wish to add a truly interesting specimen to your collection, then this is a true one-of-a-kind fossil!  Detail and preparation is impeccable.  Highly pleasing to the eye.  No restoration and no repair.

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

UNCOMMON BEAUTY AND DISPLAY APPEAL FROM A RARE EUROPEAN SITE!
