Native Gold 
Belshazzar Mine, Quartzburg Mining, Boise County, Idaho
This thick crystallized gold specimen features bold, well-formed crystals with a rich buttery-yellow color and a bright, reflective luster. The native gold crystals appear as short, slightly flattened wires with smooth, flat faces. Some of the crystals gently branch outward, and a fine layer of tiny secondary crystals can be seen growing along the sides. Up close, the surface reveals an uneven, highly textured pattern showcasing the natural complexity and geometric beauty of gold crystallization. This piece offers both visual impact and intricate detail, making it a standout for collectors.
