This robust Gold from the Yukon is rather unique as crystallized nuggets from the Territory are very rare. This fully crystallized example displays a chunky and rounded form and also features "hoppering" as well as octahedron crystals. At well over half a troy ounce, this magnificent piece is quite large for the variety and evidences superb crystal form, excellent luster, and nice size. This specimen is uncommon and very collectible.
