    Description

    How can you find a Cab like this from a famous mine for $.65 per carat?
    Turquoise has been mined from a dried up lake bed in Lander County Nevada for many years and has been called by different names. The most prevalent name now is Carico and has been recently mined in small amounts by new owners.  The Cabochons I advertise were purchased from the J.W. Edgar family after the original owner willed it to them allegedly on a bread wrapper.
    The mine produces varying colors from light green and blue to various darker shades of green.  The Cabs are highly praised and can be very expensive.  Since I am selling out of my old collection I can sell at lower prices than most that is advertised.  So, take advantage of these prices as I offer them to the public.
    This Cab was cut and polished in the mid 1970's and has a high polish. It is backed with Devcon.  Silver dollar not included.
