Item Description

A rarely seen Silver specimen from the obscure La Suerte Mine in Spain. I was able to find one other Silver specimen from this mine on mindat.org, but other than that, I can't find anything else, so you know these have to be rare! This toenail sized specimen is a beautiful, sculptural piece of Native Silver with a gorgeous antique patina. I can't find any discernible crystal faces, but it's still showy and three-dimensional. The piece weighs 16.46 grams. If you collect native elements, this is the kind of specimen that I can bet that you don't have in your collection. From the collection of Raul Sanabria Orellana, whose label states that this specimen was mined in 1997.
