Item Description
Quite hard to obtain now - these are New Mexico Japan-Law twins from an old collection. They came from an obscure old mine in the El Capitain range. Note the short "wingspan" which gives them a heart shape, and the striations slanting out from the center twinning plane. You rarely see one of these for sale, much less five; they were obviously collected by some rockhound back in the day, and proudly displayed in this Riker mount.
