Here is a beautiful fossil crinoid. This type is Actinocrinites gibsoni from the Mississippian of Indiana. This sea lily is nicely inflated and exhibits excellent detail. A long, 3-dimensional stem is attached to the huge, stellate-plated cup. The heavy, biserial arms are festooned with fine pinnules. The extremely nodose anal tube of the crinoid is displayed between the arms. The crinoid is nicely showcased on the squared matrix plate that also contains a small flexible crinoid. This is a great example of Actinocrinites gibsoni from the Crawfordsville Crinoid Beds.

This fossil was collected and obtained legally, and is also being sold legally.
