Description
Carboniferous Period, 345-280 million years BP. A white Pecopteris sp. fern on matrix together with other plant specimens from St.Clair, Pennsylvania, USA. 870 grams, 22cm (8 1/2"). From the Pradi Collection, Boston; USA acquired during 1980s. There are specimens on both faces of the matrix slab. These fern fossils are very common from coal mining areas around the world. However it is the unique state of preservation of the White on the Black Shale that gives the St.Clair ferns their beauty and rarity! Sometimes the white has turned to a rust colour. Nowhere else in the world is a combination like these ferns found. [No Reserve]
