Fabulous old Bismuth specimen composed of intergrown and highly lustrous crystals. The definition between the individual grains is so sharp that this really gives the appearance of a classic etched iron-nickel meteorite, just golden in color. Silver content also makes this unusual, as does the locality from which we do not see bismuth specimens today and haven't in a LOOOONG time.
