1.25" Kettneraspis Prescheri Trilobite - Long Occipital Spine

This is a beautiful example of the trilobite Kettneraspis? prescheri with it's distinctive large, fat occipital spine. Excellent preparation on this gorgeous little Odontopleurid with the large spine prepared free-standing. The only restoration is a few small touchups of scratches from preparation and along the repaired crack through the body.
