Here is one of the most prolific crinoid plates from Gilmore City, Iowa we have ever seen. . The plate has THIRTY ONE crinoids preserved (Eretmocrinus tentor, Dichocrinus multiplex, Aorocrinus iola, Circidocrinus fimbria, and a few Unidentified Crinoids). The Gilmore City fauna is usually split into two zones - the zone with the large crinoids, and the zone with the smaller ones - this plate is from the zone with the small crinoids All of the crinoids are well displayed, many with LONG stems present. The fossil sea lillies have nice color and contrast and are naturally positioned on the VERY LARGE plate of limestone. This is easily one of the most interesting multiple plates ever found at this historic crinoid locality.
This fossil was collected and obtained legally, and is also being sold legally.
A Certificate of Authenticity from EXTINCTIONS is included with this specimen.
