Two are going to go again this week...... :P :D
Okay, we will run the auction from Sunday morning through Saturday night(12am mountain time), and the highest bidder of the item will be posted, and the new one will begin again on Sunday morning.(Whenever we drag our butts outta bed.) :P

First we have a beautiful piece of Goethite from the Dreamtime mine in Lake George Co.
This specimen is 2 1/8" long, 1 3/4" wide, and 1 1/2" tall.
As you can see this has a very nice star burst crystal form and glistens very nicely in the sun light.
We will post several pics of this one to show the different angles. ;)

Hope you like it! :)

Wow!! :o
I was just doing a little research on this stuff, and this is another example of a specimen from the same area, but I think ours is a little bigger. ;)

Hi sgaolson,
Welcome to the CP forums. :)
You can just give your bid out loud here like Gat did for $25 in his message. ;)
Who ever has the highest bid at the end of the week will get it.
I hope this helps you.
