Whitby ammonites are usually dated to around 178 Million years old. If there is one ammonite genus that is typical for the Yorkshire coast, more specifically for the coast around Whitby, it has to be Dactylioceras. Often called Snakestones in this neck of the woods, they are part of legend and history. The legend tells of a plague of snakes which Saint Hilda turned to stone, explaining the presence of the huge number of ammonite fossils on the shore; heads were carved onto these ‘petrified snakes’ to honour the legend. It was a custom for many years, for local artists to carve snakes’ heads onto ammonite fossils, and sell these relics as proof or her miracles.
Ammonites first appeared around 240 Million years ago during the Triassic period. They descended from straight shelled Cephalopods, Orthoceras being a well known species characterised by its long straight chambered body. |

Fantastic Seller, will do business again.
Why are users outbidding themselves?
When a bid is placed, this is the maximum amount a user is willing to bid for the product. Our system will then automatically bid on that users behalf, incrementally increasing the bid to maintain their position as the highest bidder, up to the specified maximum.
When there is an icon indicating 'Auto Bid,' it means our system is actively placing bids for the user based on their maximum bid. This may appear as if users are outbidding themselves, but it's simply a result of the system updating the bid to reflect the users maximum limit.
