One of the finest thumbnails in the find, to our eyes, this is a stunningly bright, intensely colored gold specimen which is actually a giant compound crystal. Photos do not convey, how good and how sparkling this is. The crystals are razor sharp, perfect from the moment they formed. It is hard to convey any other way than simply to say, it is better than the other thumbnails (hence the higher price), for reasons of being just a few percent better in luster and sharpness, which makes it overall leap out to the eye more. Some of the crystals are so reflective, it looks like golden water. 5.41 g
