Item Description
A dramatic old US classic! This crystallized silver specimen can be displayed easily from either side. It consists of several, spinel twinned crystals, to 3 cm in length, that have formed in an attractive, dendritic, or tree shaped pattern. The crystals are lustrous and contain tiny bits of attached light green epidote. Ex. Edward Geissler (1892-1974) collection, and so dated to the heyday of the mining here prior to WWII. The mass is 54 grams. Valued $2500-3500.
