Item Description
A sculptural and aesthetic stacked cluster of lustrous to matte-finish, acanthite octahedrons (or rather, pseudo-octahedral crystals) from the finds at the well-known Imiter Mine in about 2005. All of the lustrous face are overgrown with a nifty second generation of tiny acanthite crystals. You don't see much of this around today. The fine piece displays great, as the largest octo is strikingly set at the top! Valued $1250-1500
