The mines around Pribram have produced amazing crystallized specimens for hundreds of years. Cerussite is one of lesser seen minerals from this mining district, but they can be some of the most attractive Cerussites from any old European locality. This piece came to me from an old collection, and is in amazingly good condition. It features several sharp gemmy crystals of a light straw color forming an attractive crystal group. The orangish crystals on this specimen are small Siderite rhombs. The main Cerussite crystal is complete all the way around and is in very good condition with only minimal contacts. A great old time Cerussite from this most classic of localities.
