THREE PAGES of FINE MINERAL SPECIMEN and MINERAL COLLECTION Liquidation auctions: Here you will find many old classic and rare specimens from recent collections we've purchased (in particular, we continue dispersing the large and very diverse mineral collections of Bob Trimingham, Herb Obodda, and Art Soregaroli). There are plenty of unique pieces and classic specimens, both rarities and and gem crystals we seldom see for sale - especially at auction. Enjoy!
