Description/Interesting Notes:
A rare locality example of native gold from California!!! This specimen consists of a quartz matrix that hosts several areas of crystalline
native gold!!! The native gold has a rich yellow hue and brilliant metallic luster!!! Upon close inspection one can see crystalline features
on the native gold!!! This specimen has fantastic provenance, including a copy of the old, original assay reports from the locality
owner, R. W. Havey, as well as a note and addressed packaging sent by him to a Dr. J. Kaufman in Connecticut (dated 1968)!!! This specimen is
from the personal collection of Bob Jenkins and retains his original personal collection label as well!!! The pics hardly to it justice!!! Must be
seen in person to be fully appreciated!!!
Good luck and be sure to check out my other exciting mineral auctions on ebay!!! STAY TUNED!!! MORE AUCTIONS WILL BE ADDED SATURDAY NIGHT FOR A SPECIAL 5-DAY AUCTION, ENDING THURSDAY JUNE 2nd!!!
