A very rare and oddball locality piece, said to be from the early 1900s. These two specimens were exchanged from the Natural History Museum in Sofia by dealer Keith Williams, when he was over there buying minerals in the early 1990s as this region was opening up to the specimen trade. I have not seen others.
