The Teylers Museum in Haarlem is the
Netherlands' first and oldest museum. It opened to the public in 1784. Among
their treasures is this gem from Kalgoorly, Australia. Its greatest width is
no less than an inch. I took a picture of it because this is how I imagine the nuggets in Jackson's creek
would have looked: indeed, as large as a walnut!
