• #1 - This specimen was part of Roger Harkers collection and has three of his labels glued to the perky box it comes mounted in. One had detached and has been stuck back on with a conservation grade tape. The specimen is mounted with glue into the box. Ex. Roger Harker collection.
• #2 - This specimen was part of Roger Harkers collection and has three of his labels glued to the perky box it comes mounted in. One had detached and has been stuck back on with a conservation grade tape. The specimen was originally mounted with glue into the box but this has failed; it is now mounted with mineral tack. Ex. Roger Harker, S. D. P. H. collections.

This is a small mineral specimen and I highly recommend magnification for viewing, ideally at least 10x.
