Perfect little trilobite!

Actually, the right eye is damaged somewhat, but otherwise pretty good. Complete prones don't usually pop out of the matrix at Penn Dixie, but this rock was weathered and relatively 'soft." Popping it out wasn't my plan. It just happened.

Very nice Jeff!  I look forward to getting home in a week or so and digging into several partial prone ones from that trip to see if I got lucky with a whole one.
