A super Arizona classic, featuring Baryte with inner lively sparkles and golden color beneath the seemingly brown surface. It is common enough in mediocrity, but this is one of the very best I have seen for sale and is 2 orders of magnitude better than most. There is some damage, mostly at the lower periphery of the cluster, but it is also more or less complete all around and given the size of the crystals, quite remarkable for the occurrence. It is also an old specimen from the Schwethelm Collection (purchased from Obodda in the 1970s). Comes with custom-made lucite display base for easy showing.
