Item Description

An attractive and aesthetic Wulfenite specimen from this historic area featuring lustrous, dark butterscotch colored, thick tabular crystals of Wulfenites with minor Limonite. It's a bit rough in a few spots, but still complete all around, and shows decent color when strongly backlit. The largest crystal measures 2.0 cm. From the collection of Vasco Trancoso, a medical doctor and prominent mineral collector from near Lisbon, Portugal (https://www.mindat.org/user-11954.html). He assembled his mineral collection over the course of 60 years, and built a fine worldwide display collection that we recently purchased. This piece is pictured on mindat.org at htthttps://www.mindat.org/photo-191146.html
