I went to Robin Hood's Bay last week in Scarborough. I brought a hammer & chisel with me. I found some really good fossils, 2 out of all of them were ammonites! Great find. Was yours just embedded in or was it an actual full shell?
-
wonderful places and wonderful layers , one of the best places in europe for looking for ammonites .
-
rarity totally depends on the species of ammonite....it would be best if you had it looked at by a specialist.

there not rare

just last week i was down in lyme regis and over the course of two days managed to find eight icthyosaur vertebra and four ammonites. as well as a multitude of other specimens. apart from belemnites ammonites are the most common fossil on the beaches of lyme

ammonites are not rare at all especially on the beaches of lyme regis, it is a misconception that it is impossible to find anything,

After leaving Morrisons Earlier I was looking at a large Flower bed covered in mud and I saw and found a large fragment of Ammonite about 3 inchs long!

Fossils are everywhere. I saw one in a slab of marble the other day... keep your eyes open and you'll keep discovering them.

Very nice find, well done! I hope you managed to chisel it out and take it home. Quite jealous here...
