Silver on Acanthite

Item Description

Silver from the Imiter mine tends to be rather common in low quality of thin, bendy, fragile wires, but is very rare in the form of nice, tick, ropey wires that are solid and unbendable. This is a native silver specimen with thick wires, solid and unbending, that have grown together in a thick mass of approximately 3 cm wide and 3 cm tall. It looks like a frozen wave of silver!!! And, it is perched, balanced, in a nice matrix of acanthite for display the combination of rich and thick silver, AND that it is on (and embedded in) matrix, is uncommon. It is beautiful, and complete all around. Valued $2500-up.
