Item Description
Carrollite from this find of the late 1990s, brought to the Tucson 1998 show by the brothers Gobin, remains THE most important find of the species ever. Quite simply, this is one of the most stunning miniatures we have ever had or seen, and was a cherry pick right off the top of the production. The form, the sharpness, the luster, the perfect balance of size, the edges, the textbook shape - all top percentile. And, it is a floater, complete all around. Taken together, one of the most impressive miniatures of the species possible to own. We value this highly as a significant miniature; and it could certainly be worth $7500-plus, quite fairly.
