Lot of 7 gold and silver ore specimens from the Gould & Curry Mine on the Comstock Lode. The Comstock Lode was a massive silver and gold deposit which produced most of its ore between 1859 and 1874 and is the reason Nevada is known as the Silver State. These samples contain visible gold, and some contain the silver-bearing minerals argentite and pyrargyrite. Sizes range from 2 x 2 to 8 x 7 cm.
