This is one of the rarest combinations from the Denton Mine, not in terms of galena and fluorite association which was common, but in terms of the galena druse preferentially coating one face of the fluorite. There were precious few of these. This piece has no point of attachment. One edge chip but otherwise in great condition. Advance mining August 1992. Sam & Ann Koster Collection 00753.
