Acanthoceras Heteromorph Spiral Ammonite Fossil — Rare Ram-Horn Style Display Specimen
Rare and striking Acanthoceras heteromorph spiral ammonite fossil display specimen with a dramatic coiled “ram-horn” form, pronounced ribbing, and strong sculptural presence. The fossil is naturally presented on a pale stone matrix base, making it an excellent collector specimen, natural-history display piece, or cabinet-of-curiosities centerpiece.
The specimen features dark brown to charcoal tones with visible ridging, natural surface texture, mineral variation, and excellent visual contrast against the lighter matrix. Its unusual spiraled form gives it a distinctive architectural look and makes it stand out from more common flat ammonite specimens.

Rare heteromorph spiral ammonite fossil specimen
Identified/listed as Acanthoceras
Dramatic ram-horn style coiled form
Pronounced ribbing and natural fossil texture
Mounted/preserved on natural stone matrix
Strong display piece for fossil collectors, office décor, shelf display, or natural-history collection

Please review all photos carefully, as they are part of the description. Sold as shown.
