1.8" Mississipian Gastropod (Euomphalus) Fossil - Iowa

This is a nicely preserved Euomphalus latus gastropod that's has been mostly exposed from the oolitic limestone, collected near Humboldt, Iowa. The quality of preparation on this fossil is very nice - using skillful air-abrasion techniques under a stereo microscope. One edge of the limestone has been cut flat, allowing for aesthetic presentation without the need for a display stand.
