AmmoniteKing00 Posted April 25, 2015 Share Posted April 25, 2015 (edited) Is this a possible shell or ammonite imprint? Edited April 25, 2015 by AmmoniteKing00 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fossilized6s Posted April 25, 2015 Share Posted April 25, 2015 Welcome. A clearer picture is needed. And a location of the discovery would help. It looks like something, but it's just too blurry to be sure. ~Charlie~ "There are those that look at things the way they are, and ask why.....i dream of things that never were, and ask why not?" ~RFK ->Get your Mosasaur print ->How to spot a fake Trilobite ->How to identify a CONCRETION from a DINOSAUR EGG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludwigia Posted April 25, 2015 Share Posted April 25, 2015 I'd venture to say that it's not an imprint, but we could only say for sure when you post a better photo like Charlie said.

Auspex Posted April 25, 2015 Share Posted April 25, 2015 The depression only hints at a spiral pattern; it doesn't follow the natural .618 golden ratio. I cannot suggest how it came to be, but I am confident that it is not an ammonite impression.

jpc Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 Not an ammonite impression, although I cannot say what it might be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auspex Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 It could conceivably be weathered spalling.
