This Lycopod cone is approximately 320 million years old and has wonderful detail on each half of the split nodule, there is also seed preservation. This locality has now been back filled, so these wonderful Carboniferous fossils are becoming increasingly difficult to obtain. This fine specimen resided in the late Professor GORDON WALKDEN collection and was first discovered in 1996. Fossils Direct is a premium collectors website. |

Preserved in a hard ironstone nodule is this unusual three dimensional plant specimen. This is from a horsetail and it's where the leaves are connected to its stem, almost giving an appearance of an "inside out" umbrella. A lovely collectors item. |
