Item Description
Juicy, curved, pyromorphite barrels from the famed early 1980s finds at the Bunker Hill Mine are a highly desirable classic. This excellent thumbnail is strikingly capped by a 2.0 cm, curved, doubly terminated, compound crystal with hoppered terminations. The crystals are honey-brown with beautiful, gemmy, yellow tips. Complete all-around and very nearly pristine, with only very trivial contacting where a bit of white cerussite is visible. A very fine and aesthetic thumbnail from this renowned find. Ex Howard Belsky Collection.
