From 1969, an ammonite and some elm leaves.
Ammonites first appeared some 240 million years ago.
The zelkova could go back as far as 2.5 - 5.3 million years ago.
Great - I have two small ammonites on a saucer in my office and a large one out in the garden - all from a geology trip to an island off Skye. Soe rocks here https://bit.ly/34dlGPZ

Love an ammonite but to see the leaves we know now from deep time is quite evocative.

Nice fossil stamps. The steps to my front door are limestone and have a couple of fossils embedded there.
