Item Description

These specimens are some of the most easily recognizable, dramatic and highly sought after Silver specimens from the Western Hemisphere. This specimen is a nice example of this well known material. It is a great display piece featuring sharp, intergrown "spearhead" and Spinel-law twinned crystals associated with minor whitish Calcite on matrix. The various habits of Silver are part of what makes Batopilas such a great locality. They are immediately distinguished from all other Silver specimens around the world. Priced at $1200 retail.
