Spectacular, 2.5" Erbenochile From Unusual Location

This is a truly spectacular Erbenochile trilobite from a very unusual location. Nearly all of the Erbenochile come from near Foum Zguid but this one was quarried near Jbel Ou Driss, Morocco. The rock is much harder at this location, and more time consuming to prepare, so you are probably looking at 80+ hours of work into this specimen.

The detail is stunning, with excellent eye facet preservation in both eyes, and not only the axial spines free standing but the dozens upon dozens of tiny spines covering the thorax and tail are preserved. They don't get any nicer than this.
