Two Complete Crinoid Fossils With Trilobite - Morocco

This a pair of rusty-red, complete crinoid fossils featuring intact crowns, long stems and a ball-shaped holdfasts. It is quite unusual to find crinoid fossils complete from the crown on down to the holdfast. There is also a complete trilobite and a couple of partial trilobites on the piece.

The red coloration is due to the oxidization of iron pyrite which originally preserved the fossil. The rock measures 9.5 x 9.5"
