An unusually well-formed topaz crystal from the 1999-2000 finds of spectacular American topaz specimens at the ZAPOT MINE in middle-of-nowhere, Nevada. Complete and equant save for two spots of damage to either side (it is there, and detracts from price, but is not too bothersome visually at the reduced price). No more has been found since! The true color is a pale blue, pretty much as shown on my monitor.
