Boogra Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 Looks to me like this trilobite could be extracted more out of the matrix its buried in. Yes? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...52BSI%26otn%3D4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest solius symbiosus Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 ^^I wouldn't pay that for it. His other stuff has at least some provenance. For that kind of money, I would want details. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phoenixflood Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 Yes, it is possible for someone to get it more out of the rock that way with special tools but I don't think you'd find much else.
