Nicely zoned baryte, largest crystal 6cm. Purchased Munich 1988.

Ex E Mitchell Gunnell collection no 153. Rear of the Gunnell label notes that the specimen was "purchased on June 27 1953, from D. O. Thorpe who, with partner, had purchased the John Rohner Collection, Idaho Springs, Colorado, from George Van Der Vere, curio store owner" and gives the "pro-rata cost, as $5". Prices have drifted upward since! (Author: ian jones)
