These unusual crinoids are from a relatively new site in Morocco. They are both Penterocrinus sp. from the Silurian crinoid outcrops. This type is very distinct, with extremely thin, branching arms. The crinoids have wonderful dark color and excellent contrast. The fossils are quite idetailed and display beautifully on the reddish block of limestone. Both crinoids have long sections of stem preserved, which is highly unusual. This is a great double example of an uncommon Penterocrinus crinoid from Morocco.

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