When we established Premier Relics as one of the growing leading artifact dealers in the United States we wanted to bring authentic, researched, and museum grade artifacts to the general public. This ‘LOT COLLECTION’ was created on the basis of providing real and authentic relics from the past at EXTREMELY affordable prices.

When purchasing an artifact from our ‘Lot Collection’ you will receive one randomly selected artifact from the lot (group) of relics you see in the photo. The photo represents the exact quantity that is originally available as well as one of the randomly selected relics that you will receive. Meaning that one of the relics you purchase and receive is pictured in this exact photo.

History:

Ferns are an ancient group of plants. By about 350 million years ago, ferns are seen in the fossil record. This makes ferns older than most land animals and far older than dinosaurs! Ferns are a very ancient family of plants. They predate the beginning of the Mesozoic era, 360 million years ago. By as early as the Triassic period, evidence of ferns related to several modern families appeared. Most modern ferns are leafy plants which grow in moist areas under forest canopy, but prehistoric ferns had various growth strategies, ranging from tree-like, to winding, climbing and epiphytic forms. They are “vascular plants” with well-developed internal vein structures which promote the flow of water and nutrients.
