Eurypterus remipes is an
ancient ancestor to the modern horseshoe crab. These Eurypterid fossils are Silurian in age
and typically are found in the shale deposits of the northeastern US and
southeastern Canada. This particular specimen is mostly intact and ~85
cm
long; the matrix block is ~15 by 17 cm. It was recovered from the
Fiddlers Green Formation, Herkimer County, New York. Reasonably priced at
$500.00,
it is an affordable good quality Eurypterid for display and collector
enjoyment. SOLD |

Here is an outstanding collector
crinoid plate from the famous Crawfordsville, Indiana, location. There
are 11 different spieces of crinoids (including a rare
"horned" crinoid) on this plate and each is identified by
number on the accompanying identification card. These crinoids are Mississippian in age
and come from the Ramp Creek Member, Harrodsburg Limestone, Montgomery County,
Indiana. This spectacular specimen has been in our personal display for several
years but someone else should enjoy it now. The plate is priced at $3500.00. |
