Calcite with Pyrite

Unknown Owner
Aesthetic specimen showing glassy gemmy golden yellow crystals of calcite to 6.0 cm in size on a breccia matrix with golden crystallized pyrite. One smaller crystal on the back of the piece is cleaved as shown in the video. My opinion this is in very good condition.
