A single compound Barite crystal, 7.7 x 3.2cm, rising up through two piece of matrix like Excalibur. The crystal is brilliantly lustrous, complete and undamaged. The specimen is a floater that detached from the pocket wall - while the bottom is not as lustrous as the top termination, it is recrystallized.  Good sized for the locality, an American classic.
