This exceptional miniature features a razor-sharp, honey-colored fluorite crystal of the classic and unmistakable color from this Midwest location, where such crystals were found in the 1970s-80s. The fluorite is 2 cm on longest edge, and stands beautifully on minimal matrix. This is a fine, competition level miniature specimen from the long-held collection of Jean Smith (founder of the Rocksmiths dealership which I grew up buying from, as did so many collectors of my own generation in the 1980s-90s).
