This specimen is composed of multiple Pyrite pentration twins. I have been told collecting of such specimens from this location occurred in the 1960s; the specimen was purchased in 1972. The edges of the crystals are beveled and have a slight curve to them. The specimen is in good condition with only minor bruising. There are some cracks in the specimen which are more pronounced in the pictures, but the specimen appears to be stable.
