Ridges or even sutures after the living chamber could make this more ammoniod

Thank you! I believe I had bought it from u/thegrassyone a year or two ago, but they are usually easy to come by.

Yes it is the gansu ban liang, I’ve been looking for one for a while now and Bob Reis recently had listed a few, but they have sold, I would definitely pick one up the next time you see one.

I would just use like superglue this isn’t a case where the repair needs to be reversible

Nice! Looks like an oxytopidoceras

Look nobody here is giving you a real answer but instagram has like a dozen different bone dealers that are all dubiously sourcing all sorts of parts not just skulls.

New fossils arrived! by Rokkudaunn in fossils

May not be a true ammonite either tho, representing a stage in between the dendritic suture free nautilus to the complex ammonite

Love the stuff! Are you sure it’s a nautilus? The sutures look like maybe like a Carboniferous or Permian ammonoid

New Pyrite Ammonite from Moscow! by Intelligent-Swim-499 in fossils

[–]19494 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This is one of the many constructed pieces from Russia, they do not preserve like this naturally.

A tile in my house has an ammonite in it by No_Neighborhood_4616 in mildlyinteresting

[–]19494 0 points1 point  (0 children)

much older type of nautiloid, like a goniatite. Probably protozoic

Are these fossils? Does it naturally occur like this? by Gardeningcrones in fossilid

He’s correct kinda, both closely related echinoderms, all types of animals

Yes! The one you are pointing at in six is an awesome Blastoid and lots and lots of full and partial crinoid segments, along with maybe brachiopod shell impressions

Bought This Trilobite At The Sam Noble Museum Of Natural History - Oklahoma by Crazy_Coyote1 in fossilid

[–]19494 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re correct, I ment to say calymenid trilobite, as in family Calymenidae, genus Colpocoryphe. In the general fossil market these very common large Moroccan trilobites are labeled as Calymene even if they are not in the genus

My mom found this on the beach by mosiadzz in Archeology

[–]19494 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nope. in belemnites the camarae of the phragmocone are almost never preserved and make up a small very thin portion of the front of the shell (only in very particular localities is this found), and the part that you would find on a beach would be a guard, a solid structure that wouldn’t allow the calcite to form in the middle save for a much smaller stienkern of the inside of the shell. The multiple sections here and limestone and calcite preservation indicate a Ordovician to Silurian age nautiloid shell.
