Item Description
Silver specimens from the historic mines at Kongsberg are certainly one of the most desirable localities for the species. This showy and excellent, flattened, old-timer is a nifty tangled nest of of curled, thick silver wires nicely accented with acanthite. The silve wires are beautifully burnished to tarnished. The thick wires on one end and a side are striking. HIghly representative material from this classic locale. Ex Wes Parker Collection and valued at $750-950
