First and third are specifically Orthoceras: what you have are the fosilised remains of the bone in their heads.
In the 3rd pic, there are 2 male, 2 female & 1 undecided. (Devil made me do it) LOL !!
Great Fossiles! First and third seem to be Moroccan Fossils, Morocco is rich with fossils such as ammonites, orthoceras, trilobites and dinosaur teeth, in portion of the Sahara Desert, which was once an ocean, holds many remains of creatures that once inhabited the earth. Skilled artisans prepare and polish some of the fossils. Orthoceras are dated to the lower Ordovician to Triassic ages (500 to 190 million years ago). The name "Ammonite" originates from the Greek horned ram called Ammon. Ammonites are perhaps the most widely known fossils, bearing a typically banded spiral formation shell. These squid-like creatures lived in the sea between 65-415 million years ago.
