My first discussion - Fossil to be identified 1

Recommended Posts

Hi guys,

First of all I introduce myself as it's my first discussion: I'm Italian and I've just started collecting fossils. I would like to focus my collection on fossils of dinosaurs (I'm waiting a spinosaurus and a triceratops' tooth purchased this morning on dinofossils) but I am interested in invertebrate ones too.

I am starting to classify the second ones that I already have since I was a child and,as a consequence, I need your kind and precious help for this first fossil, please.

I am really enthusiastic about this new adventure and I hope to learn from you as much as I can.

Thank you very much

Alessio

Hi and welcome to the fossil forum. I think your fossil is a ammonite.

Thank you very much! It could own to the group of ammonoids but the ammonites I have ever seen have many more spirals. So do you know a more specific classification?
