This specimen was very hard to photograph. In person, the dolomite crystals covering the matrix are much lighter in color, providing a striking contrast to the galenas. What makes this specimen so nice is the isolation of these sharp galenas (to 1.5 cm) on the matrix and their pretty balance from one side to the other.
