A fine, upright, cabinet specimen covered with sharp, lustrous galena octahedrons from the Buick Mine of Missouri. The crystals reach 2.1 cm on this piece. This is classic, highly representative material from this noted locale but a large specimen in a quality you do not usually get for this heavy lead species. Ex. George Feist Collection # 2883.
