The coolest Fossil find I have seen in a while

[M3R1IN]

So my uncle works at a gravel pit here in Southern Alberta and he collects all sorts of fossils and petrified wood and arrowheads and amber and ammolite and things like that that get dug up... he tries to watch stuff as it goes through the screeners and grabs anything he thinks is interesting.

He found this really cool snail type fossil and it is one of the nicest things in his collection....
I was wondering If anyone knows what kind of crustacean this is and if it has any value for sale?
thanks!




there is still some shine on the part of the shell here thats intact... pretty cool.
