Here is a very nice two-sided Ginkgo leaf plate. These ares Ginkgo biloba leaves from the Paleocene of North Dakota. There are two leaves on one side, and a single leaf on the back side. The two fossil leaves preserve very fine detail. The leaves have great form, and the palmate venation of the Ginkgo leaf is wonderfully displayed (difficult to see in photo). These fan-like leaves have beautiful golden-white color, which contrasts beautifully with the orange-brown matrix. The back side has a textbook Gingko leaf that is more grey in color. The leaves are well showcased on both sides of the large plate of matrix. This is a very rare, very collectible double-sided example of classic fossil Ginkgo leaves.
