Description from the seller
Save Shipping Costs with Our Popular Combined Shipping Service
Save shipping costs with our popular combined shipping service, which is available for almost all items we offer (see also “Shipping”). If you win multiple items from us within the same themed auction, please wait until Catawiki combines your won lots into one combined order with only one set of shipping costs whenever possible. If payment is completed too early, this unfortunately no longer works because Catawiki creates separate orders automatically. In such cases, we carry out one shipment per order and unfortunately cannot refund double-paid shipping costs afterwards. We therefore highly recommend waiting until all desired auctions have ended before completing payment.
A striking natural Pyrite specimen from the renowned Franklin Mint "Minerals of the World" collection.
Pyrite, often referred to as "Fool's Gold", is famous for its brilliant metallic luster and naturally occurring crystal formations. Its golden appearance has fascinated collectors, miners and geologists for centuries.
This specimen displays countless sparkling crystal faces with excellent metallic reflections. Several larger crystal formations are visible among the dense crystal coverage, creating an impressive three-dimensional appearance.
The specimen is mounted on its original Franklin Mint display stand and is accompanied by the original collector information card.
