95ecjtg ((2nd STILBITE
BOWTIE)), $1 MINIMUM BID, Jalgaon, Maharashtra,
India, 5 x 2 x 2 cm, Miniature, NOTE: I did not take a photo
of this one. It is the same size, etc as the 1st one. Only
difference is that the one side of the bowtie does not flare out quite
as much as the other. It is slightly smaller and is not quite as
symmetric. It is a floater with no damage or termsination.
