A classic Maine amethyst point, with UNUSUALLY good gemminess and translucency to it for the size. Probably an older specimen, though I have no way to tell. All I can say is that this is MUCH MUCH more gemmy and translucent than anything I have seen from hewre in modern times and it is likely to have been mined prior to 1960, I am told. The bottom is cleaved off but the termination, and the upper surfaces ion display, are all pristine and lustrous and intact all around.
