academy/PAC87D1x.JPG A very rich specimen of solid copper, fairly important for what it is, of native copper from North Carolina. This certainly dates to the 1800s. I have never seen such a rich, well crystallized specimen. It has a reliable old label glued to the specimen itself, lest there be any doubt.
