The holy triumverate in Illinois Fluorites is glassy luster, gemminess, and great zoning. It is not often that you find all three together in an Illinois fluorite, but when you do, the results are amazing and like nowhere else! Adding to these superb aesthetics are a unique, notched beveling to some of the front edges that is out of this world. We have never seen the like (twinning?). Let the pics speak for themselves. Overall, a truly eye-catching miniature. Complete on front, contacted on bottom, with some cleaves on the back side only. RCL 1496
