Item Description

A classic, excellent, old-time galena on chert specimen from this much less well-known Tri-State mine. The sharp, splendent crystals are aesthetically clustered on the sculptural chert matrix. The striking 2.7 cm cuboctahedron on top has amazing, well-developed fortification features on one side. Sharp cubes and smaller octos are a super accent. A wonderful 360-degree, pristine specimen. Ex. George Feist Collection # 1157.
