This fascinating specimen formed when gemmy calcite crystals grew in the natural pocket formed by a buried fossil clamshell. The interior of the shell is now completely covered with these fine, golden crystals. This is a TOP example of one of these, aesthetic in every way. The crystals are big and gemmy, and are cupped perfectly by the shell.
