NATURAL
DOUBLE HOLLARDOPS ( METACANTHINA ) TRILOBITE LAB PREPPED
Hamar
Laghdad Formation - Erfoud, Morocco
DEVONIAN
PERIOD: 395-345 million years ago
As
a fantastic display specimen, this NATURAL double Hollardops trilobite
shows two creatures on their original yellow limestone rock. Both trilobites and the surrounding
limestone "hill", have been carefully
lab-prepped with high-tech micro-abrasive equipment to fully expose every bit of tiny detail.
The end result was worth the extra expense and labor and has produced
this fascinating, fine quality fossil. This double fossil
was prepared to be viewed from every angle. The larger trilobite
appears crawling over the rock with a smaller Hollardops situated off to
the side in an enrolled "death pose". The entire fossil is
natural with the exception of minor work done to one eye. Fine
detailed eye lenses can be seen on both trilobites and entire bodies are
without any restoration! With
their dramatic articulation and full inflation, this is a hard to beat
natural double specimen with high
recommendations as a fine quality multiple Hollardops example.
