Scunthorpe Ammonite. Some of the most beautiful ammonites in the world come from the Jurassic (200 million years old) from the Frodingham Ironstone Quarry in Scunthorpe, UK. This 5.5 inch diameter complete ammonite, Asteroceras sp. has lovely white-cream colored chambers with golden Septa (divisions between the chambers). It is aesthetically displayed on its 10 x 9 inch original matrix darker rock and stands in an upright position making for an excellent display. The ammonites from this quarry are in high collector demand since the quarry has been permanently closed for many years and is now a landfill site.
