Gold sheen

Gold Sheen is a rare variety obsidian, golden in color and flecked with minute spangles. It is polished to a glassy, gleaming finish, usually tumbled so as to retain as much of the stone as possible. It is brittle but in the past was often used to ornament belts or shields. Chips of gold sheen were frequently used as a form of currency among mercenary encampments. A typical specimen has a base value of 50gp.
