jimmy1971 Posted February 22, 2009 Share Posted February 22, 2009 Can anyone please give me an ID and aprox age on this ammonite. It was found in North Texas, Denton County. I'm thinking it may be Duck Creek but still kinda new to this so not positive. Thanks for any info you can provide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnJ Posted February 22, 2009 Share Posted February 22, 2009 Check out some Mortoniceras species to see how well it compares.... The human mind has the ability to believe anything is true. - JJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CreekCrawler Posted February 22, 2009 Share Posted February 22, 2009 Nice specimen Jimmy, I have one just like it,, albeit a little smaller.I decided to use an engraver to jackhammer out the center whorl on mine.I really wish I hadn't! I really didn't take my time and without experience the end result looks a little off. I am planning on filling it back in to look like the one you posted.It still looks great on a stand though! Nice find B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
