- Galena - Cuboctohedral (Skeletal)
- 19th of September Mine, Madan, Rhodope Mtns., Bulgaria
- Miniature, 4.5 x 3.8 x 3.7 cm
- SOLD
This specimen hosts a pristine, sharp, 1.8 x 1 x 1 cm cuboctohedron, perched atop matrix. I saw only two examples of hoppered crystals of this form in the entire lot of dozens. It is a bit pricier than a comparably sized cubic crystal, but then also more rare.
