The Exchange

Lots on offer

Every lot here was published from a dealer's Stratum inventory with the locality, formation or culture, restoration and documents on file stated up front — the disclosures the AAPS code asks of a fossil and the ownership history the artifact trade asks of a point or a coin, before you ask. Make an offer from your browser; the dealer answers from the iPad.

Nothing is listed right now. Dealers publish from Stratum's Market tab; the first lots will appear here.

Stratum is the inventory, provenance and certificate system for fossil, mineral and shell collections. Strata is its open reference: every fact cites its source, and the credits page lists each one with its licence.
