Item Description
Dramatic, large, dentritic, spinel-twinned copper from the famous Central Mine. The stunning large branching spinel-twins highlight this striking two-sided flattened tree-like piece with a bright patina. The piece has been cleaned to bring out the rich copper luster. The Central Mine closed in 1898, but the dumps still produce fine specimens periodically. Classic and very showy large Copper Country copper. Rare Central Mine copper in this size and form with multiple fine display views.
