Pretty nice old smithsonite specimen, probably from the colonial times. With an old Maucher label. This is a real old classic from the stock of Elisabeth Anneser, the daughter of Wilhelm Maucher, who took the name of her brother to keep the family name in the company from 1936 to 1944. Well-shaped too.
