Polished Extinct Fossil Orthoceras Plate / Morocco. Condition is New. Shipped with USPS Priority Mail Package. BThe fossils commonly known as orthoceras are extinct "straight-shelled" cephalopods that lived during the Upper Devonian period around 370 million years ago. They lived inside of their shell, had tentacles that they used to grab food and jet propulsion, squirting water to move. The matrix containing them is quarried from the Atlas Mountains of Morocco and frequently polished to make decorative items with the fossils visible on the polished surface.
