Here is rare echinoid and crinoid association from Gilmore City, Iowa. The plate has a nice Cercidocrinus fimbria (top) and a rare Archaeocidaris aliquantula echinoid preserved. The crinoid is well preserved and has some stem still attached. The urchin is beautifully displayed with spines intact. The fossils have great color and contrast and are naturally positioned on the natural plate of limestone. This is a very uncommon echinoid and crinoid association from a classic fossil locality.
This fossil was collected and obtained legally, and is also being sold legally.
