Here is a textbook crinoid from Gilmore City, Iowa. A wonderful example of Eretmocrinus tentor is preserved on the plate. This crinoid is beautifully displayed, with the arms splayed and much of the long stem present, which is very unusual. The fossil echinoderm has great color and contrast and is nicely positioned on the natural plate of shale. This is a beautiful crinoid from a classic locality that is now closed to collecting.
This fossil was collected and obtained legally, and is also being sold legally.
