I do not think there are more than a small handful of Arizona scheelites of such size out there, of ANY quality. This is a whomping huge crystal of the rare orange scheelite found in the 1940s and 1950s at this remote locality. This is one of the largest I have seen for sale. It is not complete, since it is contacted at the base and around the back (though it does still have crude faces back there), but it DOES display a nice upper-front side and shows numerous crystal faces there. It is large and dramatic, and an important addition to any Southwest collection! 6.1 x 6 x 5.1 cm
