This is one of the finest Peruvian Tetrahedrite specimens that I have come across. This large cabinet is populated with dozens of razor-sharp complex tetrahedrons that have superb luster. Many are 1 cm on edge! With such contrast between the Tetrahedrite and the Galena, none of the pics do the piece justice. In person, it is a killer. Ex. Charlie Key stock.
