Reminds me of the gold veined quartz crystal lump I found on Lake Superior as a child. It was made into a 3-3 1/2" gazing ball after I sold it. Wish I'd kept it!
Theres probly a very reasonable common sense explaination for this BEAUTIFULL GOLD SPECIMEN missing from the show....................BUT I sure cant think of one! that would have NEVER left my sight for 1 min........................Glad it was found!
It was packed in a different box than what it arrived in, so as to protect it, fragile. All the boxes were supposedely checked, apparently one was not :-)
Humans are fallible, it has been found, lessons have been learned and that lovely specimen is back to be looked at and enjoyed. Glad to see it and thank you for sharing!.....................63bkpkr
