Top Quality .8" Basseiarges Trilobite - Jorf, Morocco

This is a top quality, .8" specimen of Basseiarges from Jorf, Morocco. The rock from this locality is extremely hard with an almost glass-like texture making it difficult to prepare. This results in many specimens being "burnt" during preparation and loosing a lot of shell detail. Not this little beauty. The shell is actually translucent, so it is taking on the reddish color of the rock below.
