Smithsonite (Var: Cuprian Smithsonite)
This is absolutely, unequivocally, one of the very best cuprian smithsonites recovered from a famous find in the early 1990s by George Stevens (who does Marty's shows and probably gave him early shot). I remember seeing most of the pocket in his room one year around 1992 or 1993, and was blown away. However, NOTHING was available by opening day that was this good, to my memory. This one has color saturation in the top percentile, great luster, and a waxy look to it that makes it glow in good lighting. It is 3-dimensional and complete, and undamaged, all around. The color is as good as it gets! 9 x 6.7 x 4.1 cm
