Item Description
A unique, amazingly sculptural, silver/copper halfbreed from a smelter run at the famous Quincy Mine Stamp Mill. The nugget has beautiful silver luster and bright copper patina, giving the modern art piece real pazzazz. Enclosed in a 11.0 x 8.4 cm, glass-topped box with an old $250 price tag on the back. Undoubtably old material, this is interesting product from the smelt process, probably formed on the sides of the recovery tanks. 42 grams. Current value???
