Exquisite Acanthopyge (Lobopyge) Trilobite

This is a exquisite specimen of a rare lichid trilobite, Acanthopyge (Lobopyge) bassei from Atchana, Morocco. At .8" long if outstretched it's about average size, and it's preserved in a posture this species is nearly always found in, arched backwards. The preparation on this specimen is very nice, notice all the minute shell details that were preserved. No restoration.
