3831391
location:
Deardorff Mine, Hardin Co., Illinois, USA

Brilliant lustrous crystals of galena to almost 3.0 cm on edge set on matrix with calcite and fluorite. Very minimal chipping present on some of the edges as seen, I still think this in good condition. The luster on this one is much better than most from this mining district.
