While this is a commonly found trilobite, this Diacalymene ouzregui is the absolute best specimen we kept out of selling hundreds of these specimens over the last 15 years.  We had kept it in a small gallery collection we had from that many years ago, realizing it was the best specimen we had seen in a very large early purchase.  Even since that time, we have never seen one as nice since then.  Now, it is time to sell and so we list it here.  If you have been wanting to upgrade a typical lower quality example of this trilobite, or never liked the usual offerings seen for sale, this is a great chance to finally pick up a top-shelf one of this species and type. 

The trilobite has been preserved in a fossilized concretion which has been broken open to reveal the trilobite inside.  This fine example is 100% natural and has no restoration, only repair from fractures that were necessary to break open the nodule.  This choice example is from the Ktaoua Formation (a once prehistoric ocean floor) from Morocco.  Specimen is even nicer than images depict.
