Stock Number  FPFPA21

Name:   Fossil Seed Fern Plate
Age:  Pennsylvanian
Formation:  Llewellyn Formation

This is a large plate of fossil seed ferns from the classic St. Clair, Pennsylvania locality. The seed ferns are preserved as a thin film of white pyrophyllite on black shale. The plate has many distinct fronds intact, two of them being complete to the tips. The seed ferns have very nice contrast and excellent detail and display beautifully on the matural plate of shale. This is a very aesthetic plate of fossil seed ferns from the ''Coal Age'' of Pennsylvania.
