C'mon get your Ammonites out...

Just wondered what you guys/gals have out there ? This Hildoceras I found sticking out of the beach, covered in matrix, chipped it off to reveal an ok side but no detailed centre, decided to attempt the other side, sadly it cracked in half but... I did manage to expose the other side and glue it so is now fully exposed, cheers.

Nice Ammonite!!! 

 

Here's my Ochetoceras Zio from The lower Taman formation  (Kimmeridgian) of San Luis Potosi, Mexico. It's also in the gallery and in collections.

That's an amazing find!...congratulations. The largest Hildoceras I ever found near Whitby was about 5" in diameter, and the fact you managed to get it out of matrix in just two pieces is credit to your patience....NICE ONE!!!
