This is a classic Lower Cambrian trilobite. It is a nice Olenellus thompsoni from Pennsylvania. This specimen came from an old collection - it was found over 20 years ago in East Petersburg, not the more common Fruitville Quarry site. This specimen has very good detail preserved. The natural coloration of the fossil is quite nice. There are also heads and other parts on the plate. This is a very fine example of this famous trilobite from Pennsylvania.
