Product Description
A VERY rare occurrence can be found at an exclusive Upper Jurassic fossil-bearing site in Germany. The ammonites have been preserved a beautiful and completely natural GREEN hue! This is a group of the last of a small lot we purchased from the original collector many years ago. The ammonites preserve in a stunning three-dimensional form with full delicate chamber detail on the surface. Ammonites from the source range from a limey-gold to a rich dark blue-green hue caused by unique mineralization in the fossil stone. These examples are of the rarest rich dark green tone. This is a set of four examples of typical sizes that were found.
This RARE green Perisphinctes species ammonite from this site in Grafenberg, Germany is sure to please any collector of the unusual. Out of the few specimens that we were fortunate enough to collect, this is one of the best. Detail is impeccable and creature has been freed of its surrounding host rock and richly displayed in this glass case. Yes, the color is 100% natural! A unique site and a beautiful specimen for collectors desiring rare and uncommon fossils!
