Description/Interesting Notes:
A magnificent, old time example of pyrargyrite from this classic locale!!! This specimen consists of a complex group of sharp, lustrous
crystal of pyrargyrite!!! The crystals have razor sharp faces with brilliant luster and very dark reddish color!!! The
main crystal shows prominent twinning as well!!! The crystals are complete and the specimen is in magnificent condition all around!!!
Upon close inspection there are some areas of whitish calcite and some minute, dark brassy prismatic crystals of an unidentified species present as
well!!! With significant backlighting one can see areas of red highlights within!!! This is a magnificent old time pyrargyrite from
this famed historic locale!!! Classic material!!!
The pics hardly do 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 MONDAY NIGHT FOR A SPECIAL 3-DAY AUCTION, ENDING THURSDAY JUNE 6th!!!
