A natural, unrestored matrix from Morocco containing two Elrathia kingii trilobites, listed as Devonian and weighing 100 g.
Description from the seller
Hereby offered: a splendid, authentic matrix with two trilobites of the genus Elrathia kingii.
This fossil dates from the Cambrian (about 500 million years old) and is a beautiful, historical collectible from one of the earliest periods of complex life on Earth.
The matrix (host rock) contains two beautifully preserved trilobites that lie in a natural, contrasting color on the light-gray stone.
The segments of the exoskeleton, including the cephalon (head shield) and the segmented body (thorax), are still very well defined and three-dimensionally visible in both specimens.
The matrix is solid, stable and forms a perfect natural display.
There have been no restorations or artificial repairs to the trilobites; this is a 100% honest and natural double-fossil.
