The 11th specimen of Archaeopteryx (Solnhofen Limestone, Germany - approx 150 Mio Years old).
As far as I know this one is currently on display in the Senckenberg-Museum, Frankfurt, Germany, but belongs to a private collection. Found some decades ago near Eichstätt, Germany. It lacks most parts of the head, but the feathers are extremely well preserved.
