Fossildude19 Posted March 8, 2023 Share Posted March 8, 2023 This looks quite like the Cleoniceras ammonites from Madagascar. Real, and generally inexpensive, as they are so numerous. You can tell it's an ammonite by the suture patterns visible in the last picture. 4 Tim - VETERAN SHALE SPLITTER VFOTM --- APRIL - 2015 __________________________________________________ "In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks."

Mark Kmiecik Posted March 11, 2023 Share Posted March 11, 2023 Not an octopus -- an octopus has eight tentacles. Mark. Fossil hunting is easy -- they don't run away when you shoot at them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
