American Museum of Natural History, New York City (September, 2006)

 
One place I'm always going to head to in a museum of natural history is the gems and minerals.  Not only are they fascinatingly colorful and exotic but the way museums display them with solid background and bright white lights is really enjoyable see.

The AMNH is no exception.  They have a rather large Hall of Gems and Hall of Minerals with plenty of interesting stones, including some that are radioactive!
