Spyroceras-Two Parallel Or Just Flattened?

Hey guys, found my first Spyroceras (i think) at the Penn Dixie site a few weeks ago, cleaned her up, and applied some glue/water mix to make her stand out. The thing is though, I'm not sure if the space down the center of the fossil is separating the two halves of the fossil or if I have two parallel fossils. So, I didn't apply glue to that area because I wasn't sure if it was actually part of the fossil(s).

This is all I found, I didn't find a top half sorry. Hope the pictures are ok. Any help is appreciated, let me know if I can do anything. Thanks in advance!!

In my opinion,it looks like Spyroceras Cephalopoda from Penn Dixie,and I think it is the same specimen splitted in two pieces in longitudinal section,and the sutures are seen from the inside.
