DENVER SHOW SPECIAL: FINE MINERAL SPECIMEN LIQUIDATION AUCTIONS (set 1 of 2) - end Sept. 22, 2016

Ends Sept. 22, 2016

We could not take all the goodies we found after Summer Cleaning in our back warehouse to the show, so this auction set is PACKED with FINE OLD CLASSIC MINERAL SPECIMENS including a number of pieces of HIGH $$$ from old mineral collections! Some of these I have owned for years and can liquidate now, and others are new finds where we saved a few back for our auction customers. Look for many valuable mineral specimens starting at only $10, in one of our most diverse and high value auction sets yet!


Some of the highlights from this week's include:
1. Sapo Mine Blue Cap TOURMALINE!
2. Impressive Tsumeb reticulated CERUSSITE
3. Fine selection of OLD CLASSICS from EUROPE!
4. Virgin Valley OPAL
5. Fine Chinese WULFENITE
6. Dramatic large etched Brazilian SPESSARTINE!
