A beautifully symmetrical, highly arching, nearly pristine, lustrous pyritized Spirifer brachiopod from the Devonian of Sylvania, Ohio. This specimen has excellent bi-lateral symmetry and comes from a quarry west of Toledo. The little attached pod of pyrite on the bottom is a very nice and uncommon accent.
