measures 2.8 cm on edge. Of all the great pyrites I've had from Spain, this one has the neatest penetrations I've seen. The largest crystal is perfect and has two other
crystals penetrating it at almost exactly the same angles of penetration. This is a fantastic piece for anyone, especially a pyrite collector. Pristine all around.
