A cluster of lustrous metallic grey-black crystals perched on Acanthite. It is possible that many (most) are twinned as is characteristic for the species, from what we have been told. A very rare member of the silver species group! This is a shockingly bright and sparkling specimen with highest luster. From Marshall Sussman (Crystal Cellar, Oro Valley, Arizona) on March 5, 2019.
