Description: Welcome to Pioneer Fossils! A Certificate of Authenticity will accompany this specimen. The Certificate will have on it a photo of the exact item you purchased. Here is a large and choice example of a rare ammonite from France. It is from the Cretaceous, about 133 million years ago (Hauterivien). Found at the town of Arpavon, near Nyons, in the Drome region of France. From an old collection, many collected in the 1960's. It is a Crioceratites duvali. It was a heteromorph ammonite, meaning its shell was partially uncoiled. This particular one measures about 2.7 inches at the longest length. It is in-Situ, meaning it is still in its original plate. The plate is thick measuring about 5.7 inches at the longest measurement, and weighing 2 lbs. 2.45 oz. The Crioceratites duvali was named by Leveille in 1837. The smallest part of the coil came off, probably during excavation, and was glued back on to the matrix. It should last many, many years as long as it is not treated roughly or dropped.We invite you to visit our store.

We have given hundreds of partial refunds for combined shipping savings. We will do our best to combine purchases to save shipping costs. In some cases, that is easy, in some cases, not as much. Our items are of vastly different sizes and weights, but we never use shipping as a profit center. We would rather refund the shipping overpayment back to you, and have a happy buyer. We are happy to enclose a COA (Certificate of Authenticity). Some words of caution about COA’s: Do not let them become a substitute for learning about the specimens. We have been working with fossils and minerals for many years, and we have seen hundreds of very nice-looking COA’s, some that are wrong, mis-describing a specimen. Have you ever received a Certificate of Authenticity (COA) that had no photo on it of the item you purchased? A COA should be specific to one particular specimen, with a photo of the item on it. At Pioneer Fossils, all of our fossils and minerals that come with a COA, have a photo of the exact item you just purchased. It can never be transferred to a different specimen. ****************************************************************************************************************************************** IMPORTANT: If you are not satisfied with your order, please contact us, and let us make it right, before giving any feedback.
