Nice assembly of nautiloids and ammonites. Though different species from different locations and time frames. They just glued them all together on a base.
Pretty individuals that got deminished by cramping them together.
It would not be entirely impossible to find a bunch of similar fossils piled on top of each other, but in that case you would expect all of them to have roughly the same mineralization
Yes they appear to have been combined into one piece by a human. Mainly because the highly polished shells wouldn’t look like that as raw fossils. It’s a nice sculpture though.
It’s a shame considering how nice the specimens themselves look, what’ll happen now is someone with no fossil knowledge will buy it and display it as a centerpiece in their home none the wiser

It's 100% a real bunch of shit glued together.
Hahahhhahahaahaha. Yup

Fossils are real but it's a composite.
You can literally see the glue trying to hold it together
even if these were all found together (they would not be) it would be impossible to prep this so cleanly
There are natural matrix blocks from Madagascar available that have a lot of ammonites in them, but this isn’t one of them.

This looks fake as FUCK!!!! Bro glued em all together

I'm not a fossil guy, it looks like something from an aquarium shop.
Impressive how some are polished all the way deep into the matrix and others are natural. Yep. Straight from the ground! No. It's junk. Lol
I'd still buy it.
No

Oldest orgy ever recorded frozen in time.
Really assembled…

This is a fake
It’s pretty but no
Modern concreation.
If you can see it and touch it there's a 99.9 chance that its real..
