Copper

A really neat specimen from this old Alaskan mining district. A loose lustrous slightly rounded crystal of native copper without matrix. This has a great patina and is in excellent condition. Specimens from this mining district are rarely if ever seen available on the market. Ex Doug Toland collection.
