This extremely elegant combination specimen is one of just a very few of such quality to have come out about 5 years ago. It is complete all around and really just dramatic as heck. The color of the purple apatites (which are to almost 1 cm in size) leaps out at you - they could pass for Maine apatite, easy. At the time, these went for very high prices and I remember some I didn't like as much at higher prices, so I think that this is, relatively, a good deal.
