Mary Anning's Fossil Discovery Bundle - Authentic Fossils

The story of marine reptiles such as the Plesiosaur, cephalopods like ammonites, and not to mention our modern understanding of species extinction, would be incomplete without discussing the contribution of Mary Anning (1799-1847).

Her most notable finds include the first complete Ichthyosaurus and the first two complete Plesiosaurs. She is also credited with being the first to recognize the importance of coprolites and had extensive knowledge of ammonites. Though denied recognition in her own lifetime, Anning is now recognized as a foundational figure in paleontology!⁠

This bundle includes two fossils related to Anning's work, as well as an Easy-Macro 4X macro lens for smartphones, and a copy of She Sold Seashells ...and dragons: The Curious Mary Anning. Re-imagined, a fantastic picture book about the young life of Mary Anning. It's the perfect bundle for any kid who loves paleontology!

Plesiosaurus Tooth

Featuring a long, snake-like neck and a stout body equipped with slender paddles, Plesiosaurs are one of the most readily identifiable of all ancient marine reptiles.

Mary Anning's discovery of the first complete Plesiosaur was incredible important to the fledgling field of paleontology. However, it would take another 163 years for the Royal Society to recognize her influence in the advancement of science.

This specimen is an authentic Plesiosaur tooth recovered from deposits in Morocco and dates to the late Cretaceous Period. It measures between 1.5"-2" and ships in a classic, glass-topped riker display case measuring 4 1/2" x 3 1/2". An informational authenticity card is also included.

Amazing Ammonite Pocket Fossil

400 million years ago, the amazing Ammonite swam through the seas. These cephalopods survived several mass extinction events, including the Permian–Triassic "Great Dying" which wiped out 96% of all marine species.

Anning was quite familiar with the iconic spiral shells they left behind in the fossil record, each a unique and beautiful treasure from a fascinating creature. This specimen is one of these pocket-sized fossil shells from a 66,000,000-year-old Ammonite!

The Amazing Ammonite Pocket Fossil is a display box that contains a small, <1 in fossil shell, a folding informational card about the ammonite, authenticity details, and a beautiful illustration of the prehistoric creature!
