We obtained the last of a small batch of these fossil plants. Enjoy!

The various plant fossils shown immediately below were collected more than 15 years ago and are part of an old accumulation we purchased. The material is from the Winterset Limestone, Independence, Missouri, and is Pennsylvanian in age. The contrast is not prominent, hence the difficulty in photographing the pieces. In hand, the contrast is more distinct. All of these specimens are fine examples of Coal Age plants from an area closed to collecting for many years. Please order by letter designation to assure you receive the specimen you want. These are reasonably priced and attractive additions to any fossil collection.

Fossil leaves are quite interesting and can be beautiful examples of ancient flora. The specimens shown below come from the Fort Union Formation, Glendive, Montana, and are Paleocene in age. As most fossil collectors know, nice fossil leaves are not easy to obtain. Please order by reference letter to assure you receive the correct example.  SOLD OUT
