Here is a great lot of LDG that I purchased some years ago. Each piece
has been professionally cleaned. So most will not have the reddish
tint that is common with the typical LDG. I am trying to sell this
quickly so I have dropped the price down to lower that I have ever
seen it. The lot has had all the highest grade pieces removed but there
are still plenty of individuals that should sell for over $1 per gram.
Please look here for pictures of the typical quality of material available:
