An excellent, classic, super-sharp, doubly terminated, gemmy and lustrous, amber calcite crystal from the small mine in Hoxie - I had one of these rare, glorious twins in my childhood collection and prized it highly. I have seen just a handful in 25 years of looking. This cabinet-sized crystal has very gemmy terminations. Complete all-around and very nearly pristine. Note the complex, beveled tips. These really stand out in person from Sweetwater or Tri-State material, to which they look superficially similar. Ex. Consie Prince Collection.
