A gorgeous 360-degree, complete "crystallized nugget" style gold from the famous Bendigo goldfields of Australia. These are ancient, and it is hard to tell if these are crystals worn into smooth patterns by tens of millions of years, or naturally shaped intricate nuggets. But this piece clearly is made up of crystal structure, with faces and edges. Robust and superb thumbnail-sized specimen, and also great for jewelry use. From a private collection. 18.5 grams.
