bulletPennsylvania's state fossil is Phacopsrana, a trilobite - essentially a pop-eyed, six-inch-long arthropod resembling a horseshoe crab - that roamed the shallow sea covering what is today Pennsylvania during the Devonian Period, 405 million to 365 million years ago.  Most specimens of Phacops rana fossils are found in the Mahantango Formation that blankets central and eastern parts of the state.

ABRAHAM LINCOLN (1864) 2nd Inaugural

With malice toward none; with charity for all; with firmness in the right, as God gives us to see the right, let us strive on to finish the work we are in, to bind up the nation's wounds; to care for him who shall have borne the battle, and for his widow, and his orphan - to do all which may achieve a just and lasting peace among ourselves and with all nations.
