Item Description
An old-time, sculptural specimen of nubby, hackly native copper from the famous Old Dominion Mine. Documented specimens from this noted mine are seldom on the market. The piece reminds me of coral. There are many tiny cuprite crystals and crusts embedded on this showy and excellent, two-sided, old-timer from the Dartmouth College Collection. The numbers match.
