These are amazing specimens! You’re very lucky to live so close to these beauties! I may have to make a trip over there this year. :wub::fingerscrossed:

Your fossils are amazing! :wub: Often pyritized ammonites are somewhat small and just include the inner whorls, but yours are quite large and spectacular. :drool:  

It's hard to be sure without seeing a couple of different views including the venter and aperture, but I suspect your unknown Cretaceous ammonite is a species of Placenticeras.

Please tell us some more details about these finds. They are nice pictures of nice fossils, but it would certainly be nice for the average collector to learn more about them.
