Item Description
This is an elongated solid silver nugget, massing 290 grams (9.35 troy ounces), and complete all-around 360 degrees. It is actually very sculptural and pretty, and not so ugly as you might expect! While gold readily forms nuggets, as does platinum and other metals, for some reason of chemistry, this rarely happens with pure silver. A pure silver nugget of this size is in fact extremely uncommon! If you did see one, you'd expect it to be from Michigan but not in this case. To make it rarer yet, it is from the old Cobalt silver deposits of Canada. A fine and odd addition to any silver or Canada suite. Ex. UNIVERSITY OF ARIZONA MUSEUM COLLECTION by deaccession. This huge, impressive nugget stands on a custom-made lucite base, included.
