Single cubic crystal of Zvyagintsevite, an ultra-rare natural alloy of Lead and Palladium. Complete all around. Has smooth faces with metallic luster on all sides and the characteristic feature of stepped growth. This resembles the Platinum crystals found at the same locality, but are much much rarer. Ex. Neil Levett collection.
