SIlver and Gold

For Macro Mondays "Rock". I decided simple was best for this shot.

 

The two specimens are from our family's extensive rock collection - accumulated over four generations! The top one is obviously pyrite, but I'm uncertain what the bottom one is (it was added to the collection before 1950). It looks like pictures of germanium, although germanium is supposedly very rare in ore form. Any ideas?????

 

By the way, the silver rock is 1.5 inches in it's widest diameter.
