This ammonite has been cut in half to reveal the internal structure of the shell. In life, the last chamber was occupied by the animal itself, which resembled a modern-day squid. Calcite and darker aragonite crystallisation are shown here in this specimen, which are sometimes called "caramels" because of the gorgeous brandy colouration.
