Description/Interesting Notes:
A rare, old time example of rhodochrosite from this sought after historic German locality!!! This rare, old time material
dates back to the 19th century!!! This specimen hosts a striking group of botryoidal rhodochrosite crystals with cherry red color and
glowing translucence!!! The botryoidal rhodochrosite is thick and has marked clarity all the way through!!! This is a killer old time
Rhothenberg Mine beauty!!! The pictures don't even come close to doing it justice!!! This specimen retains an old label from the collection of
J. Hoppner as well!!!
