Classic gold from California! This specimen has all the distinct features that make Californian gold so special. Brilliant luster, deep pure yellow colour, beautiful leaf and crystal structures all around. The rear side is indeed equally fine and shiny. Especially the outlines of the golden leaves are flanked by numerous sharp crystals. 39 grams of pure gold fever!
