This large, heavy, impressive specimen of native Canadian silver has quite a pedigree, having passed to Earl Calvert in a trade from the Royal Ontario Museum, and thence to Richard Hauck. It is essentially a very large leaf of solid silver, not flimsy at all (it weighs over 5 ounces!). The historic Frontier Mine is also known as the Canadian Keeley Mine. A significant Canadian silver specimen! 13.3 x 9.5 x 2.4cm
