Item Description
From the thumbnail collection of Herb Obodda, sold us in 2008, this single crystal of Boleite (a very rare lead-silver-copper halide) has the typical textbook cubic shape and famous saturated Prussian blue color that the mineral is famous for. The luster and color are classic, and it is nearly pristine! This is from the 1970s finds here by Larson and Swoboda, and is a competition level thumbnail! Type locality. Crystals like this should fetch $1000-plus.
