Description:A fantastic and historic slabbed specimen of Gold (var "Electrum") from the famous Idarado mine. The Gold has a lustrous, BRIGHT, metallic appearance, and stands out beautifully against the snow-white Quartz and black Sphalerite matrix. This piece would make a fine addition to a Colorado suite, or even more specifically, a San Juan mineral suite. It was collected by Andy Sutyak of Ouray, Colorado in 1927. The piece later went to Clancy Fleetwood (Brian Kosnar''s great-grandfather), and in 1984 became part of the famous Colorado mineral collection of Richard Kosnar, whose hand-painted catalogue number (G1084Tb) is on the bottom of the specimen. Valued at $1200.
