Description: This complete fossil scallop shell is a unique collectible that represents the later stage of the Megalodon era. More specifically this geological period was known as the Pliocene era when much of southeastern Virginia would have been under about 100 feet of ocean about 5 million years ago. It's quite rare to find both halves to one of these shells together and more or less intact. This item is perfect for collectors of fossils and shells, and would make a great addition to any collection. The scientific name for this mollusk species is Chesapecten jeffersonius and it was found in the Yorktown Formation. Chesapecten jeffersonius is Virginia's state fossil, and this wonderful example is a must-have for anyone who is interested in fossils and wants to add a unique piece to their collection.
