Here is an incredible multiple crinoid plate from Gilmore City, Iowa. The plate has TWENTY-EIGHT(!) crinoids preserved (10 Eretmocrinus tentor, 12 Dichocrinus multiplex, 2 Aorocrinus iola, and 4 Circidocrinus cirrifer). All of the crinoids are beautifully displayed, with LONG stems present on many of the crinoids. The fossil echinoderms have nice color and contrast and are naturally positioned on the very large plate of limestone. This is one of the most prolific multiple plates we have seen from this historic crinoid locality. (The red dots are used for identification.)
This fossil was collected and obtained legally, and is also being sold legally.
