Pyrite (classic Colorado)

Item Description

Leadville pyrite specimens of this large size with impressive large crystals are RARE and are very seldom available in this old-time size and quality. Mirror-bright, brass-yellow, tightly intergrown, pyritohedrons with sharp well-developed surface striations crystals comprise this impressive mounded piece. The striking large crystal at the top is 4.2 cm long. An outstanding 270-degree specimen with all of the many major crystals being pristine. One end is dinged, but is mostly out-of-sight in the several excellent display views. From an East Coast collection. A seldom seen, old and RARE large Colorado classic. A MUST for the locality or species collector.
