caldigger Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 I would be so scared to handle that. Fear of breakage would prevent me from possessing something so delicate. After all, I live in earthquake country. It's truly beautiful, don't get me wrong about that. Do you have more items to show? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiamL Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 I bet that took many prep hours. Would they take the legs off and put them back on after? Yorkshire Coast Fossil Hunter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fear of breakage would prevent me from possessing something so delicate. After all, I live in earthquake country. Me too. Heck, considering how expensive trilobites prepped like that are, I wouldn't even try to buy one due to fear of breaking such a delicate piece. But that trilobite is heck of a beauty! If you're a fossil nut from Palos Verdes, San Pedro, Redondo Beach, or Torrance, feel free to shoot me a PM! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
