LiamL Posted March 28, 2023 Share Posted March 28, 2023 (edited) I've been trying to vary my ammonite collection with some rarer found species. I still have plenty of gaps to fill but I've got plenty of searching time ahead of me yet I'm also quite picky with which specimens I keep for my own collection, hence the small number. These are all self found and prepared by different talented fossil preparers. Lower Lias Oxynoticeras simpsoni, Robin Hoods Bay Androgynoceras heterogenes, Robin Hoods Bay Leptechioceras? Robin Hoods Bay Bifericeras bifer, Boggle Hole Middle Lias Amaltheus stokesi, Stoupe Beck Sands Pleuroceras hawskerense, Runswick Bay Upper Lias Grammoceras thouarsense, Ravenscar Pseudolioceras boulbiense, Ravenscar Dactylioceras semicelatum, Runswick Bay Dactylioceras tenuicostatum, Runswick Bay Dactylioceras athleticum, Kettleness Lytoceras cornucopia, Saltwick Bay Catacoeloceras raquinianum? Peronoceras subarmatum, Hawsker Phylloceras heterophyllum, Saltwick Bay Porpoceras vortex, Sandsend Double Hildoceras, Kettleness Harpoceras falciferum, Sandsend Haugia, Ravenscar Pseudolioceras lythense, Whitby east cliff 7 inch Hildoceras, Saltwick Bay Eleganticeras elegantum, Sandsend Edited March 28, 2023 by LiamL 1 16 Yorkshire Coast Fossil Hunter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobby Rico Posted March 28, 2023 Share Posted March 28, 2023 Beautiful collection you have built up. I only go fossil hunting every couple of years now. So it has taken me 25years to build up my collection of ammonites. My prep guy who was fantastic has retired now, can you message me with some recommendations of a good and not to expensive fossil preparers. Please and thank you, Bobby 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
