1.5" Beautiful, Chocolate Brown Hollardops Trilobite

This is a beautiful, chocolate brown Hollardops mesocristata trilobite quarried near Foum Zguid, Morocco. Excellent preparation on the gorgeous specimen. Just check out the eye facet preservation. The limestone around it is sculpted so that it displays nicely sitting on a flat surface. Some of the shell on the right side of the body has weathered to an orangish color, but that just adds some character to this fine specimen. No restoration.
