Here is a very unusual Strimplecrinus inornatus crinoid from LeGrand, Iowa, one of the most famous crinoid sites in the world. This specimen was found in the 1930s and recently obtained from a major crinoid collection. Crinoids from LeGrand are perhaps the most sought-after crinoids in the world, because of the rich history of the site. This specimen exhibits great detail - the very fine pinnulation of the arms is quite evident, and the unique plate structure of the cup is easily seen. The natural color of the fossil sea lily is also quite striking. This is a very collectible crinoid from this historic crinoid locale.
