An exceptional Loligosepia bucklandi cuttlefish-type cephalopod fossil from the Lower Lias, Lower Jurassic of Lyme Regis, Dorset. This rare Jurassic specimen is accompanied by a hand-signed Premium Certificate of Authenticity, and the photographs show the exact fossil. A distinctive piece for collectors interested in early coleoid cephalopods and the marine life of the Jurassic Coast. SKU: P00132 The changing coastline at Colwell Bay, Isle of Wight, filmed during our visit. This is footage from that trip, not a current survey of the cliff or holiday park. Keep clear of unstable cliffs.
