AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Great trilobite plate. Acadoparadoxides is an extinct genus of Redlichiid trilobite belonging to the family Paradoxididae. These fast-moving, low-lying epifaunal carnivores lived in the Middle Cambrian (about 500 million years ago).
A matrix with various tribolites of this size is almost impossible to find.
This plate has been inspected by an expert from Catawiki and found to be completely genuine.
What a unique piece, it belongs in museums or at home.
The preference is for pickup in the Rotterdam area because it is heavy in weight.
Very valuable
