Item Description

A sharp and beautiful crystal group of the classic Dyscrasite from the world famous and ancient silver producing region at Pribram. Dyscrasite is an interesting species as it is chemically a silver antimonide, and not terribly common in fine crystallized specimens. As a matter of fact, aside from Saxony, Germany, the only other European region to produce excellent Dyscrasite specimens is Pribram. This particular crystal comes from the collection of Brian Kosnar and is a great exampe of the hard to find silver species.
