The quarries around Minchinhampton were the source of many fine fossils but have now, sadly, been filled in or overgrown. This particular fossil was more or less unique to this locality and is a fossil limpet shell. The specimen is 3 dimensional and is highly sought after amongst bivalve collectors throughout the world.
We at Fossils Direct always strive to bring the best examples to the market place and this is by far the finest one we have ever offered to date! The specimen is almost perfect. This is a very large matrix free , very aesthetic specimen. From an old collection. A truly exceptional bivalve!
