Products description

This coelacanth Diplurus newarki dates back to the Triassic time deposits of New Yersey, USA. It was found more than 70 years ago during ground braking remodeling and renovations of the library building of Princeton during the 1940s.


The fish is completely preserved, it measures about 8.5 cm. The matrix is unbroken, it measures about 16 x 10 cm. The stone also shows the tail fin of a second coelacanth. That must have been wonderful opportunities to find fossils at that time. Unfortunately, this is definitely over nowadays.

The stone has been covered with a thin layer of varnish, which can be removed without any problems if desired, no other manipulations.


Coelacanths are among the most sought after fossils at all. Such fish from the Triassic are extremely rare and the unusual location makes this fossil very special.


Museum piece for the advanced collector!
