Description

4 pc Wholesale lot
Pyritized Brachiopod  also called Pyrite Brachiopod
Paraspirifer bowenockeri
Silica Formation
Devonian Period
Sylvania, Ohio
Offered here are 4 excellent examples of a well known fossil from a classic American locality.
I believe that area is closed to collecting now.
These shells are treated with acid to expose their pyrite coating.
There is quite a bit of pyrite on and in these specimens and that makes the pieces feel fairly heavy & dense.
This is a good chance to get a nice 4 lot of fossils from a classic American locality for an affordable price.
Photos taken outdoors on a sunny day. See my pics!
My 2nd pic shows the underside of these specimens.  Lots of pyrite visible.
These specimens are in good to very good condition.
Weight for all 4 pcs is approximately 120 grams.
These brachiopods range from approximately 1-1/4" to 1-3/4" in width.
They range from 17 to 36 grams in weight.
U.S. Buyers only.     I only ship to the U.S.
I intend to ship these fossils via First Class Mail
