This bright, metallic specimen consists of of a rich vein of sperrylite from which project crystals at the top, to 6 mm in size. The specimen actually has MORE crystals of 2-4 mm on the other side (though the 6 mm crystal has a ding on that rear-facing corner), but it is really difficult to photograph so we simply took the shots we could get of one side and the edge view. It is MUCH better in person and I regard this as a deal for the price, for such a nice example of this rare, crystallized platinum species.
