Galena after Pyromorphite

Unknown Owner
Classic German specimen, this consisting of a cluster of very large thick tabular crystals of what were once pyromorphite, these now replaced by galena. I can never remember seeing one of these famous pseudomorph specimens with such large crystals. In great condition.
