Excellent floater cluster of sharp Realgar crystals from the US's most famous locality for the species. The largest crystal is an impressive 1.5 cm and has a superb mirror-like luster on the termination, as do all the crystals. The color is a beautiful red, with the upper third being gemmy. As expected, there is some damage along the bottom edges of the cluster, perhaps from the original mining. A fine specimen, and likely an old-timer.
