Artifact - Bangle (ex Bill Larson Collection)

Item Description

A really cool prehistoric item described as a "bangle like object" on the label that dates from the "Bronze Age or Prehistoric; 200 BC". For reference, the Bronze Age spanned approximately from 3300 BC to 1200 BC, so this piece could date anywhere from 5,000+ years old to just over 2,000 years old. The material appears to be Nephrite(?), but it doesn't say for certain on the label. This is a legit piece of prehistoric stone carving, something that you would typically only find in a museum, and I can say with certainty that you'd never have a chance to get your hands on something similar from Mogok anytime in the near future. It's impossible to come up with a value for something like this, because we've literally never had anything comparable in the auctions. Item weight is 75.3 grams.
