A SUPERB and AESTHETIC gold specimen of lustrous, flattened octahedrons and elongated spinel-twins from the famous Eagle"s Nest Mine. This one is really good, because both sides are equally beautiful. Such is not always the case. Golds of this quality are normally reserved for the Gallery, but this is Christmas - so have at it. 3.7 x 1.9 x 0.4 cm
