Excellent Fossil Fish 8.1" Diplomystus Green River Formation Wyoming COA 10679

Description

A Certificate of Authenticity will accompany this specimen.
Here is a superb fossil fish from the world-famous fossil beds of Fossil Lake, Green River Formation, Wyoming. From the Eocene, 52 million years ago.
This is an adult Diplomystus, from the split-fish layer of Fossil Lake. A complete specimen with gorgeous natural golden-brown pigment, which contrasts beautifully with the warm, sand tones of the fossil plate. Fine details include excellent dorsal, anal and pectoral fins as well as a superb tail and vertebrae.
The Diplomystus measures approximately 8.1" in length and the plate is about 10.6" x 7.2" and weighs 2 lbs. 6.05 oz.
Worthy of a museum, this Diplomystus would be a fine addition to any fossil fish collection.
We are happy to enclose a COA (Certificate of Authenticity).  Some words of caution about COA's: Do not let them become a substitute for learning about the fossils. We have been working with fossils for many years, and we have seen hundreds of very nice-looking COA's, some that are wrong, mis-describing a specimen. In addition, the person selling the item is often the one who writes the COA (potential conflict of interest). Finally, a COA without a photo of the exact item described, tied to that COA, is worthless, as it can later be placed next to any other fossil.  We suggest that instead of relying on a COA, that people read and study the subject.
