F1405 - Really nice sand dollar fossils from Madagascar.

Clypeasteroid, a member of the Echinoid family.

Cretaceous age: 65 to 130 million years old.

From: Majanga, Madagascar. Sand dollars belong to a very large group of marine animals called Echinodermata, which include the sea cucumber, sea urchin, the brittle stars, sand dollar and many others.

The matrix has been ground to a rounded top and the base is flat. Then the top was polished. Makes a nice decoration or addition to a collection.

These would make nice aquarium decoration!
