Note the wonderful old labels, one dated 1860 and the other dated September of 1855! This is from the type locality for the species, where it was first scientifically described from! The specimen is bright and shiny, with lots of crystals. Although some are broken, quite a few 1 cm, sharply terminated crystals are present. I love the crystallography studies accompanying it, rich in detail
