Sharp natural bismuth crystals are a thing of rarity. The best in terms of quality are thought to have come from this mine in the past. However, this large thumbnail specimen hosts particularly sharp crystals, to 2 cm, showing at least three different crystal habits! It is complete all around, stunning in its machined-precision sharpness, and is a competitive level example of the species in the size class. The 2 cm crystal is also significant, aside from the specimen itself. Complete all around, please watch the video. It is hard to pick a frontal side, so the previous owner displayed it on a circular pedestal.
