Description: Item #4086 This fossil fern leaf formed from the plants that make up our coal. The fossils are found in the shale layers above and below the coal seams during mining. These are very old plants that are about 300 million years old. They come from what is know as the Carboniferous, Pennsylvanian time period. What you are getting is a fern specimen which is called "pecopteris". These fossils are found in many locations in west central Indiana. The fossil was formed as a nodule that was split open. It is very difficult to split the nodule and get both pieces intact. This is only half of a coal nodule. I will label each specimen with its proper name. This fossil has good detail. The weight of the set is .45 ounces (13g). The size is 2 5/8 inches long x 1 x 1/4 inches.
