This is a fabulous Lower Cambrian trilobite. It is a complete Olenellus gilberti from the Pioche Formation of Nevada. This specimen was recently acquired from a major trilobite collection, and you can easily see why. The trilobite is complete including the telson (tailspine). The detail of this trilobite is wonderful - even the long genal and pleural spines are wonderfully showcased. The bug is nicely inflated and well centered on the large, squared plate. This is a very collectible Olenellus gilberti trilobite from the Lower Cambrian.
