of plant tissue lifted whole from slices of the coal ball. The photographof the coal ball peel in figure 2 illustrates the excellent preservation of the plant remains found in some coal balls and the beauty of fossil peat and peel preparations. Deposits of fossil peat of Pennsylvanian age are found in Europe as well as in the United States.

The evaluation of organic material in the coal balls was based on peel studies from 50 randomly selected coal balls from all areas of the crop. Each coal ball regardless of size was considered as one unit. From many of the coal balls numerous peels were obtained but only 2 peels oriented normally to each other were evaluated from each concretion.
