Excellent thumbnail-size specimen of sharp, lustrous dodecahedral Uraninite crystals from the world-famous Swamp Quarry in Maine, USA. These have gotten very hard to find on the market in this quality and this is a nice one! Measures ~60,000 CPM on my Ludlum Model 3 Counter with the 44-9 probe. Rare!!
