Museum Specimen
This Museum specimen quality Bisbee Arizona High Grade Nugget has everything a museum or a collector could want.
901 grams of Bisbee Turquoise is a natural specimen that was collected from the Lavender Pit over 40 years ago. It is in exactly the same condition that the miner collected. It has been in his family collection until now. There were no other owners.
This is the first time this Bisbee Turquoise nugget has changed hands since the miner popped it off the wall and put it in his lunch bucket in approximately 1963.
Prized as a family treasure this stone can be yours or it would make a wonderful gift to the museum or collection of your choice.
Bids are being accepted. Photos are being taken of this stone and it is destined to be the cover girl of one of the finest mineral magazines in the world.
Remember this is the finest known specimen of Bisbee Arizona Turquoise known, it is a finer stone then is in any collection, if you don't believe it visit the Frerport Mcmoran Collection in Bisbee Arizona. Good luck. And if you can't afford it keep this picture because that's all I can afford too.
It is a fine choice for the cover of Rolling Stone, ah ha, a little play on words but this stone does that to you. I feel lucky to have had the chance to hold it and enjoy the rarity of a gem of this class.
If you are so inclined we figure that it has 1000 to 1500 carats of the highest quality spider and gem Bisbee that can be cut, but it would be sad day to break up this stone.
