An impressive, large, doubly terminated, amber calcite crystal attached to galena and calcite matrix and aesthetically mounted for display from the George Feist Collection #1435. This pristine, lustrous and translucent beauty has a nice interior phantom and the pyramidal terminations are very distinctive and more transparent. I particularly like the way the crystal tapers to the smaller termination. Classic and very fine Viburnum Trend material from the famous Sweetwater Mine.
