Large Fossil Seed Fern Plate from Pennsylvania
Stock Number  FPFPA915
EXTINCTIONS Choice

Name:   Fossil Seed Fern Fronds
Age:  Pennsylvanian
Formation:  Llewellyn Formation
Location:  Near St. Clair, Pennsylvania
Size:  Plate is 9 inches across

This is a large plate of plant fossils from the now-closed location at St. Clair, Pennsylvania. The fossils are preserved as a thin film of white pyrophyllite on black shale. The detail of the fossils is quite nice, and the plants are nicely showcased on the large plate of shale. The plate has been broken and repaired, but the lower price reflects that. This is a very fine example of a plate of fossil fern fronds from the Coal Regions of Pennsylvania.
