Silver is a precious metal that Man sought after and extracted since 5000 years. Silver has been used throughout History as a commodity money until modern times and the generalisation of the Gold Standard and paper money; for the vast majority of historical times, being in control of silver mines to mint sovereign coins was an essential prerequisite for the existence of strong city-states, kingdoms or empires.
Still today, silver is considered a precious, quite scarce and valuable commodity: in the world of mineral collection, the rare crystallizations of native silver and gold hold a special place regarding the intrinsic value and peculiar relationship with mankind this metal has.
This is a mineral masterpiece, displaying a wonderful natural curl of precious metal!
Here is an absolutely stunning specimen featuring a perfect large silver curl (5.0 x 2.4 cm) beautifully emerging from a carpet of intermingled smaller wires, on well-crystallized calcite gangue.
The curl is reminiscent of a fisherman holding a rod, hence the nickame of this specimen.
Here is an unique opportunity to acquire an iconic shape, high end native silver specimen!
