Comments: This is an INCREDIBLY RARE CRINOID PLATE!!  Not only does it contain a RARE Eretmocrinus but the main crinoid is the ULTRA RARE Abatocrinus grandis!!  There is also a Gastropod feeding on the 2nd Actinocrinites Crinoid crown.   I was told that they have only found TWO of the Abatocrinus grandis species of crinoids in the last 10 years of collecting and preparing.. how RARE is that!  Now.. not only is this a RARE specimen.. but it is a very attractive specimen to boot!  This plate has incredible eye appeal.
