piranha Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 Yesterday a fantastic assortment of fossils arrived courtesy of Joe (Fossily99). A while back I had just casually mentioned in a post that it would be nice to have a few representative UK Jurassic Coast ammonites, ichthyosaur-plesiosaur verts, etc., and quite unexpectedly Joe insisted on filling that niche for me. The localities are the Charmouth, Peterborough-Oxford Clay, Seatown and the croc scute is from the early Oligocene of Yarmouth. I especially like the robust plesiosaur vert and the larger Dactylioceras commune from Whitby were personally prepped by Joe using an Airpen CP9361. They are all labeled precisely and will have a special place in my collection always. Absolutely Chuffed - Thanks Joe! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ammojoe Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 Thanks for the kind words Guys! What Scott has failed to mention though, is that he insisted upon sending something in return, which no doubt will be beautiful. Glad you like the fossils, and many thanks!
