I had the luck last year to see tens of these very interesting specimens in Nals museum.
Yours could be easily in the display.

Thank you, Philippe! I am very happy to find pieces like these at that location, but you should see the aragonites that my friend from South Tyrol found there! They are really best museum quality. Unfortunately, he is not active on FMF or other forums.
