Description/Interesting Notes:
A gorgeous example of wire silver from Canada!!! This classic old timer consists of a small amount of matrix that hosts a showy, dense tuft of
thick, rigid wires of native silver!!! The silver has a gorgeous patina that ranges from near tin-white at the base of the wires to a classy
"antiqued" patina toward the top!!! Upon close inspection, one can see some pink microcrystalline erythrite on the matrix!!! Also,
with magnification there were also a few tiny crystals of an unknown metallic species (likely a Co species) in association as well!!! This specimen
retains an old unattributed label as well!!! The pics hardly do it justice!!!
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 NOVEMBER 11th!!!
