Paladin
transilis Trilobite Age:
Upper Carboniferous
Size: The trilobite is 1 3/16” in length on a small flat lying
piece of matrix.
Fossil Location: Zhirnovsk, Volgograd region, Russia
Comments: During the Carboniferous Period trilobites continued on
their steady decline to extinction. In general, trilobites from this
late period are quite rare and highly collectable. In particular,
these Russian Paladins, are highly desirable. Known for their almost
sculpted white marble type appearance, they are quite beautiful to
behold. This one, besides a few minor flaws is an outstanding example
of this aesthetic. It has had absolutely no reconstruction or enhancement.
I acquired it directly through the Russian field collector
