A classic, old-time and beautiful, twinned calcite crystal from the Joplin Field of Missouri. This sharp, pristine, lustrous, translucent, light amber crystal is twinned at 127 degrees 30 minutes. Tri-State twinned calcites of this quality are very uncommon and this is a fine one. Ex. George Feist Collection #2464 and comes with an old A.E. Foote label, which dates from 1880-1895.
