This is a Hoploscaphites cheyennensis from the Fox Hills Formation in South Dakota. It is a Cretaceous ammonite. The whole specimen in the matix measures 4" wide, 3" high and 3" thick and weighs 2 pounds. It is a nice, complete specimen with its tubercles extending all the way to the outer part of the shell. I have another Hoploscaphites listed (#160154437993) that has a nice red iridescence, but is missing some nacre and tubercles on the last 2 inches of the shell. This specimen is more complete, larger, but not as pretty. The ammonite is closer in color to the darker photos. The lighter photos were taken outside to show detail, but the color is darker than shown. T is a small patch of nacre missing at the outer part of the shell. Sits nicely for display. I am offering a 30 day money back guarantee, including all shipping costs, if you are unsatisfied for any reason. Priority shipping in the United States is $8.95. All other countries, please wait after winning for an invoice with the adjusted shipping cost. Please let me know if you have any questions. Good luck!
