OKF-373    Pyrite Bar    St. Joe Lead District, Missouri.     Ex Anthony P. Dunn collection.  Now here is a really serious specimen for the collector of classic American minerals.  This specimen measures 13.5 cm in length it is 6.7 cm wide and its base.  It averages approximately 4 cm in thickness and is fully terminated on all sides including its base.  There is a single minor white dolomite crystal which is the only accessory mineral present.  The bar is very stable standing on end for display and is slightly curved in form.  I can't say enough about this piece’s rarity and aesthetics.  It is one of those amazing pieces which is seldom seen in the mineral market especially in large damage free pieces like this.  There is another collection number on the base of the piece but my guess is that this specimen was mined in the mid-1970s.  They don't get much better than this so I suspect this one should go fast even though it's an expensive piece of pyrite.   $1600

OKF-055

OKF-055    Galena and Chalcopyrite    Buick Mine, Reynolds Co., Missouri.  Ex. Art Edwards Collection.  Here is one of the finest galena specimens I have seen in years.  It is perfectly balanced on a natural section of matrix (not trimmed).  The massive cube measures 7 cm on edge!  It has a great patina not a newly mined flashy luster.  This is truly a specimen that could display well in any museum case.  Chalcopyrite crystals coat the upper sections of the matrix and a couple of minor calcites are on the bottom.  The cube is fully formed on all sides and displays great from any view.  14 x 10.5 x 10 cm overall.  An absolute steal at 850$
