Gold Crystal 
Round Mountain Mine
Round Mountain Mining District, Toquima Range, Nye County, Nevada, USA
This strikingly beautiful gold crystal displays a well-formed, robust structure with sharp edges and an extraordinary, high luster. Its surface is embellished with triangular gold crystals known as trigons, with certain sections showcasing double trigon crystallization. The gold exhibits a richly saturated, deep honey hue, setting it apart from the pale yellow commonly seen in this region. Both sides of the specimen are equally captivating, adorned with numerous geometric crystals, including modified octahedral clusters. Since the mine has ceased production, these specimens are growing increasingly rare and are highly prized by mineral collectors.
