THREE SMALL SPECIMENS OF CRYSTALLINE GOLD. These pieces are from Olliinghousse, Washoe County, Nevada. They are from an old collection, and were probably collected between 1910 and 1920. They weigh 0.63 troy ounces. Note the ultra fine nature of the crystals, which in some cases appear as needles. Ollinghouse is a mining camp about thirty minutes drive East of Reno. It was in its heyday in the post-1900 Nevada Gold Rush.
Estimated Value $500 - 600.
