***Buyer will receive the exact item as pictured! Look at images carefully before purchasing! 

I take multiple images of each item and measure them one by one to closest estimate. 

For my customers’ conveniences, I provide weight and size estimates on the title, so they have

almost all detail in the title. Measurements in inches are rounded to the nearest number. 

***** Actual item may differ slightly than the image due to image quality, lightening, Contrasts, resolutions and other factors. However, in most cases, actual items look better than the images. There might be slight differences in measurements due to reading errors or scales. 

Wikipedia: 

Orthoceras (“straight horn”) is a genus of extinct nautiloid cephalopod. This genus is sometimes called Orthoceratites. Note it is sometimes misspelled as Orthocera, Orthocerus or Orthoceros (Sweet 1964:K222).

Orthoceras fossils are common and have a global distribution, occurring in any marine rock, especially in limestone.

These are slender, elongate shells with the middle of the body chamber transversely constricted, and a subcentral orthochoanitic siphuncle. The surface is ornamented by a network of fine lirae (Sweet 1964:K224). Many other very similar species are included under the genus Michelinoceras.
