Superb Fossil Fish 11.7" Mioplosus Green River Formation Wyoming WY COA 10690

Description

A Certificate of Authenticity will accompany this item.
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 Mioplosus, a feared predator of Fossil Lake. Measuring nearly 12" in length, from tip to tip, this specimen is complete with excellent ray fins, caudal fin (tail) and a strong vertebrae. Nice, natural brownish-black pigment complete this fossil. As a bonus, a few sharp teeth are visible!
Professionally framed in a handsome, natural finish barn-wood frame. This item would display nicely in any rustic or urban-modern rustic setting. Ready to hang and securely backed, this piece measures approximately 16.4" x 11.2" and weighs 7 lbs. 7.30 oz.
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 specimens. We have been working with fossils and minerals 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, as part of that COA, is worthless, as it can later be placed next to any other fossil or mineral.  We suggest that instead of relying on a COA, that people read and study the subject.
