Tidgy's Dad Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 It's part of the outer whorl of an ammonite or part of a heteromorph ammonite if they have them like that in Montana. Life's Good! Tortoise Friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ynot Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 I think it is a heteromorph ammonite. Nice find. Darwin said: " Man sprang from monkeys."

BobWill Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 Compare with Hamites sp. but it's probably a different genus. These are sometimes called "paperclip" ammonite because of the parallel shanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
