Item Description

Cerussites are highly desirable and are uncommon from the famed Bunker Hill Mine, known world-wide for superb pyromorphites. This exquisite thumbnail is a sharp, water-clear, flattened, cyclic twin with very nifty form. Complete all-around and pristine, except for the contacting on the lower right. The clouded area on the back of the crystal is the tack holding the piece up to a post. Old-time, seldom available material from the 1960s or earlier from the Dick Jones Thumbnail Collection.
