Here is a fantastic fossil Ginkgo leaf plate. These are Ginkgo biloba leaves from the Paleocene of North Dakota. These classic fossil leaves are quite large and preserve fine detail. The leaves have great form, and the palmate venation of the Ginkgo leaves is wonderfully displayed (difficult to see in photo). The fan-like leaves have beautiful off-white color, which contrasts beautifully with the orange-brown matrix. The leaves are well showcased on the very large plate of matrix. This is a top quality, very collectible multiple example of classic fossil Ginkgo leaves.
