Item Description
A classic Galena specimen featuring sharp, rather lustrous faces and great cuboctahedral form which is associated with a few accenting Galena crystals and aesthetically sitting on Dolomite and Chalcopyrite on matrix. Not nearly as common on the market as they once were, and are easily some of the most well known American Galena specimens extant. The piece can be displayed from many angles, and is in great shape overall. A wonderfully well-balanced display specimen with good quality crystals.
