Description/Interesting Notes:
A magnificent example of native silver from Mexico!!! This specimen consists of a striking, dramatically
elongated "herringbone" cluster of spinel-twin native silver crystals!!! This specimen is comprised
almost entirely of native silver, accented by scattered areas of darkly colored acanthite!!! The native silver crystals
exhibit showy, sharply defined spinel-twins arranged in a classic "herringbone" pattern!!! Some of the individual spinel-twin
crystals are incredibly long - stretching to nearly 4cm!!! The individual crystals of native silver are thick and chunky with sharply
defined features!!! The crystals have brilliant metallic silver luster with accents of handsome "antiqued" patina!!! This specimen
is in magnificent condition all around and displays gorgeously in person!!!
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 SATURDAY NIGHT FOR A SPECIAL 5-DAY AUCTION, ENDING THURSDAY OCTOBER 4th!!!
